Lance

Tuesday after picking up my daddy from work I came home to a little brother who started working quite hard in a attempt to get me to cut his hair (Which is something I told him I would do a little over a week ago)... while I was sewing and talking on the phone with Trevor.
:) He started out by calling me endearments and rubbing my back...
When it became evident this method was not working too well he dashed off to get the cloth we use to keep the hair (for the most part) off the neck and out of the back of their shirts and started dancing about the kitchen using it as a cape and pretending to be Count Dracula.
:) Very funny to watch.
After about five minutes of this behaviour he once again was on the run.
:) This time after the scissors and comb...
I gave in and started chopping off his hair. He has started turning all curly on top and it makes cutting it difficult. It did not take long before I sent him off to wet down his head.
:) All the while J.E.B. was enjoying the show immensely while taking pictures. Most of them were of himself making faces. If you were to have walked in, I'm pretty sure you would have thought we had escaped from the mad house.
I can't help but laugh when I see these pictures of him looking it the mirror after I had finished.
He was thanking me for cutting it and telling me he liked it while make different faces. I'm not really sure if I should believe him. What do you think???
Oh life is never boring with brothers around.

Lance is a great to have about. He is a bookworm, has overwhelming self control and discipline (Except for when it comes to teasing Adah, then he just can't seem to stop himself), is a endless source of comedy and laughter mixed with a contagious smile, and in many ways is a challenging encouragement spiritually. I can't imagine what our family would be like without him.
I hope you all have had a good day.

Lance and Jeb look like happy people:) Now you said that you were chopping Lances hair off does that mean you were using something other than scissors do cut with? Good post:)
