Work hard. Play hard.

Nate is so active. He is always going, doing, finding, talking, playing. He is so fun and so funny!!


Then he mysteriously grows quiet and disappears. And sleeps just as intensely as he does everything else. I love it.

Safety Scissors

We were sitting in church one day when Jarin noticed that Jesse's eyelashes looked a little weird. Upon closer inspection, we learned that he had cut them with scissors. To the best of our knowledge, this picture was taken about a week after he cut them. Which means he cut them even shorter than what you see here. Crazy!!!

When we asked him about it, we were upset about the idea of scissors near his eyes. We asked him if it was ok to use scissors on his eyelashes, to which he replied "don't worry mom, I used safety scissors!" You know the scissors from fiskars with the blunt tip and really sharp blades. Those ones. We were cracking up at how sincerely he tried to comfort us. He was extremely careful. Obviously.

When we asked him why he cut his eyelashes, he simply replied "I don't know" with a shrug.

I am happy to report that his eyelashes have grown back fully. I think it took about a month to grow them back.
