Ahahahaaahha!! Upstairs cutting my husband’s hair, uh, I mean fixing my husband’s hair after he tried to give himself a haircut…again. So stubborn this man is! Anyway, in walks D’Lo, wide-eyed as usual, asking lots of questions…

“What are you doing, Mama?”

I’m cutting Daddy’s hair.”

“Why are you cutting Daddy’s hair?”

“So he can look like a brand new man.”

“Look like a brand new man?”

“Yes, a brand new man.”

“He can’t be a brand new man with THAT (old) skin!”
