Thing 1 recently turned 8. Yep we are officially half way to driving!!!!! For his birthday, since he is rocking a mohawk this summer, he along with his daddy's help, has sported a colored mohawk most of the summer. It has been orange, and neon green and blue. For his birthday, because it is July 3, he wanted to color his mohawk Red, White and Blue in honor of Independence Day. So, I bite the bullet and took him to an actually beauty shop and let her dye my boys' hair. I was frightened at first, one simply for taking an 8 year old and 5 year old to the beauty shop. Secondly, I was letting her dye my sons' hair that in and of itself is scary. So she starts by bleaching, yep bleaching Thing 1's hair. I made up my mind at that point there was NO TURNING BACK, so I might as well roll with it.

I have been shocked at the number of comments on the kids hair. Most specifically from older people. You know the ones you expect to freak out at the sight of two little boys with tri-colored hair. They kids are happy with it and that is what matters most. That and the fact that it is temporary style, school starts in a few weeks and the mohawk will be gone.
