Haircutting Adventures

I've gotten to the point where I finally feel comfortable cutting DJ's hair. I cut it kinda short once, but since then I've kinda let it grow out, but I keep trimming it around the ears and at the neck. Then the other day I decided that Andrew needed to have his first haircut, because he was mostly bald on the sides and it was about four inches long on top, so I cut off about 2.5 inches from the top. I think it looks a lot better now, he doesn't look like he has a comb-over anymore. Well, then I decided that I need to cut my own hair. Last year Heidi showed my a cool way to cut my own hair, and it turned out pretty well except that I cut the front a little short so it wouldn't fit into my ponytail anymore, so I just had to clip it up... it worked pretty well, so I was did the same thing again, just being careful to keep the front long enough. I just did it yesterday morning, before church and I think it turned out pretty well. Then I put it up into a ponytail as usual and I went to church. Dean didn't even know that I had cut my hair at that point. Then last night I took it out of my ponytail and asked Dean how it looked. He said that it was kinda uneven, so I asked him to fix it a little. ...well apparently I forgot to mention that it was SUPPOSED to be layered. I guess he didn't understand that, so when he went to even it out, he cut all of it even with the shortest layer. which was just above my shoulders. He got really frustrated with it and left it kinda messed up, so then I tried to do some damage control and evened it out a little... so anyways, it ended up way shorter than I had intended. But then this morning I woke up and my hair was really messed up, I think I might have to go someplace and pay someone to fix it.

It takes a village to raise a child

I'm reading a book for my class called "Boys Adrift" by Leonard Sax. I'm getting close to the end of the book, and as I've been reading I've been fearing for my sons a bit. This book is all about how more and more recently boys tend to lose motivation and are content to live with their parent's until they're 30, playing video games and doing little else. It talked about how the education system has been changing in recent years and how in many cases it tends to disengage boys from school. Lots of smart boys just stop caring about school and call it "stupid" and just stop trying while instead they put more and more effort into video games. Of course, these trends don't apply to all boys, but it seems to be happening more and more. Girls are starting to fall into this pattern too, but not nearly to the extent that boys are. He tried to guess as to some of the reasons why this might be. There is a whole chapter just about how c...
