Patchy or Bald???

 

Well, Mr. Blue Eyes has had tons of hair falling out. This morning before his shower, there was a great debate going on in the bathroom. After rubbing his head and having hair flying everywhere into the sink, I suggested we shave it ALL off. Mr. Blue Eyes asked his balding father, "Would you rather be patchy or bald?"  Dad pipes in, "Patchy.  I would keep my hair as long as I could."  MR.BLUE EYES LOOKED AT HIS BALD DAD CONTEMPLATING...then I, being a wise MOM (lol! not really, but I am a hair dresser and patchy is not a good look) say,
 "Just embrace the baldness!"

Mr.Blue Eyes says, "I think I'll go with what Dad says; he's got more experience with this sort of thing!"
Then he jumps in the shower and rubs his head like a wild man; he dances and even has some fun. He jumps out and looks in the mirror. Laughter engulfs the bathroom. He squeals and tells his brother that if he stays in the shower and keeps rubbing, all his hair will be out in one hour. (Of course, Blake, with a different set of priorities, replies, "That would be too big of a water bill."  He's definitely his mother's son.)
I love that Mr. Blue Eyes is so full of life! Today, in this moment, this is fun..... Life can be sweet even when you are going bald (just ask his dad!)

    I vote bald - but that's because I have several bald friends and I don't want them to think I don't love their baldness!! (But you are dang cute either way!!)

    Either way he's a handsome boy! He can rock both looks---patchy now and bald when it shortly all falls out!

    I love that he is going with Dad's expertise! :D However even with patchy he is just showing that there are only a few perfect heads, the rest of them are covered with hair!

    At one point in my son Stephen's leukemia treatment, he took duct tape to his head and gave himself a reverse mohawk! I vote for Corban's look. ~Laura R's mother, Lori
