Why? Well.... because he asked for it. Literally, he came to me with a hair tie and was trying to put it on his head like Mommy. So I did one just to be goofy. Since he let me do it, I went ahead and did another one. Of course, he said "ow ow ow" the whole time I did it and then after about 4 minutes of it, he started pouting "off off off off" at me. But it was good for a laugh when we did it.
Would I let him run around with his hair in pigtails regularly? HA!
Would I let him put bows in his hair and polish on his toes? HA!
Would I put him in a ballerina tutu and send him out the door? HA!
I am pretty old fashioned. These things make hilarious pictures to save to show his later girlfriends when he's about 15. But would I regularly turn him into a sissy-boy? Nope. Not having it. Although I got some flak from some people for doing it, most of my friends laughed their heads off at the pictures and said immediately "BLACKMAIL!!!" They get it. LOL
If a mom can't have something to save to later blackmail her teenaged children into good behavior, what else is there? I mean, I know good parenting spawns good children, but what fun is that???? Mommy has to have a little laugh here and there, too, doesn't she?
So to the people who saw the picture and asked if I'd lost my mind or told me it was time for a haircut(and yes, it is trim time), lighten up. And to the people who saw the picture and laughed with me, Have another chuckle at Joshua's expense. He's too little to know the difference yet.
If it helps, I WILL find something equally embarrassing to do to Holley. Because ya gotta love a teenaged girl's reaction to an embarrassing mother. I can see the horror now "Mo-o-o-om!" LOL.
Besides, the pictures are my payback to Joshua to being a smartmouth already. I will ask if he is silly, and he just rolls his eyes and says "moooo----oooom" in that tone that makes me want to crawl over and kick his little butt. Luckily, I don't think he knows about sarcasm yet.....
