The Long and Short of It

Matthew loves his new, short hair. I miss his curls, but he does look adorable even without them! I think what Matthew enjoys the most is that his short hair is so easy to care for -- a little coconut oil, a boar bristle brush and we're done! No more tangles, no more finger twists. Matthew reflected on this the other day while reading another one of his favorite books, Shades of Black. He pointed to a photo of a boy with very short hair using a boar bristle brush. "Dat's Matthew!" he said. Then he pointed to a photo of a girl brushing her very long hair. "Oh, too bad," he commented. "Dat's so ouchy!"
