Ethan’s First Haircut

Posted in Ethan at 5:48 pm by Aaron

I finally had my moment of truth on Friday night. I had taken Ethan down to put him to bed, and had just finished changing his diaper and putting on his pajama pants when he leaped up and ran into the corner. When I looked up, I had a vision. There he was, standing in the corner, shirtless, his belly sticking out over his skin-tight pajama pants, grinning a mischievous grin from under his enormous mane of blonde hair. My god, I thought, my son looks like Robert Plant.

That was it. My last bit of resistance to cutting Ethan’s hair was gone.

And so here it is, Ethan’s transformation from a hard-living rock star to a clean cut young American.
