Monday’s Child: The world’s worst haircut…
![]() |
Hello. My name is Caspar. You probably know that already because my Mum writes about me a lot.
Anyway, I now have the worst haircut in the history of the universe. Except perhaps for the early 1900s, which is the era I now look like I was born in even though I’m totally a 21st century boy.
You see, my mother has been trying to cut my hair for 2 months, but I’ve resorted to the most devastating tactics to avoid this. She finds it difficult to get near me with scissors when I’m screaming and struggling. The screaming she could live with, but when I move around like a shark in a net, the scissors just seem far too risky. Today, however, she was determined.
She put me in the bath seat. She gave me an entire bag of chocolates to play with. I still didn’t cave and it required about 20 minutes of randomly snipping whatever hair she could get a hold of before the chocolate bliss finally set in and I stayed still.
She tried to tidy it up as best she could while I complained about the hair falling in my bag of chocolate, but this is what I’m left with. She’s a bit annoyed because she really likes my hair and is quite a good hairdresser normally. But I guess I only have myself to blame.
By the way, she’s still alive and will return to tell you all about O-Week and what she’s been up to soon.
Love Caspar.
ps: My belly button is really funny.

And now, it’s been immortalised on the Web!
Hope O-week went well…

Lightening: Yup. A week will make a world of difference.
Heath: Twas good. First classes tomorrow. Eeeeek! Not eeek, actually. I can’t wait. Except somehow I got to 11:45 without organising everything I need to for Big Sis to babysit. I have a long night ahead of me. Thank goodness for sci-fi on DVD.

Oh Casper, you still look stylin’ so maybe cut Mom some slack.
I did the same to my little Bumper and she survived just fine. And I heard the early 1900’s look is coming back in, so just put on some bloomers and get yourself a hoop and stick and you’ll be just fine.

Ah, but now we can see more of that gorgeous face! Besides, I don’t think the hair looks TOO bad.

Aww, I think it looks cute!!!
And a WHOLE HEAP better than what I have subjected my kids to.

@ Motherbumper - Hello, you! It’s been ages since I left a comment on your blog. I’m still reading, I promise.
Cas would love a hoop and a stick. And look so cute it little hobnail boots.
@ SnakyPoet - Yes, it isn’t that bad. And I love seeing more of his face too. He looks more like the little boy he is becoming, instead of the chubby bubby.
@ Widdle Shamrock - Lol. I spent my childhood with hair shaped like a bowl, so this generation is definitely an improvement!

LMAO. It could be worse - like a mullet or rat’s tail
A good one to show at his 18th.
Nah, all things considered I think you did a fine job
