Owen's school picture came home in his book bag today. I took one look at the photo and laughed out loud.
Generally we don't even spike it. But for the occasional photo we try to dress it up a bit. And on this particular picture day I had Mark do Owen's hair.
You see, Mark and I disagree on how to "do" Owen's hair. He thinks that I make it look too nerdy; too done. He prefers a messy look and likes to rough it up a bit. So Owen's hair either doesn't get styled at all, or we take turns styling it. Silly, I know. But those are the kinds of compromises you have to make in a marriage.
And, believe it or not, Owen seems to be just as particular about how his hair should look. On picture morning he insisted on having it stick up in the front. And this photo reflects the sort of decisions that occur in the early morning when you're just trying to get your kid out the door for school.
Really it's not that bad. Pretty cute in fact. But on first glance it just struck me as funny. It's like his finger was just pulled out of a socket...and click.

This is...awesome! One of those school pictures you will look back on and smile--memorable, for sure. And Jake thinks I style Ollie's hair too nerdy too. I had him do it a couple of Sunday's ago and he combed it to the wrong side. Although, I didn't notice until after we had gotten to church.
that. is. hilarious.
