First Haircut


Wow how time flies... I was scrolling through they archived pictures and found this picture of Caed's first haircut (from my grandpa, the barber). He was so little! He didn't like it too much, but it is a good reminder that kids don't always stay in certain stages. For example, while I'm watching this haircut take place I want to panic and think "He's going to act this way forever, every time he gets a haircut!" Irrational, I know-but still the way I felt at that moment. Now, when we go to the barber shop he sits well and enjoys a sucker- such a dramatic improvement. It made me realize that I often fail to see the bigger picture in life and get stuck thinking that the way things are are the way things will always be-I'm glad I'm finally realizing that nothing is permanant and most things that happen to us are only "seasons" that God brings us out of.
