Relearning to Love my Kid
March 16th, 2010My wife wanted to keep our kid’s baby hair to make a calligraphy brush with. This suited me fine, since Tony’s hair was starting to turn into dreadlocks in the back (he has delicate skin, which means we have to wash his hair with soap, not shampoo, making it less slick and more prone to [...]
