A new (little) man....

After weeks of begging and pleading, James finally got his wish. Since he was born he has been mistaken for a girl, but it has been happening more and more frequently due to his long hair. We tried explain about him being native and the importance of his long hair, but he found it hard to understand and was tired of being teased. So we let him cut his gorgeous locks. The barber originally gave him a longer boy's cut, but he wouldn't have it- he wanted it shorter. He knew exactly how he wanted to look and he wanted a short haircut. I was worried that he would regret it later, but he was ready. I think this was harder on his Dad and I.

So this is what our little man looks like now....

I think it suits him and he looks cute.... it really makes his big eyes and chubby cheeks stand out more....

And he even looks a lot like his Dad at about the same age. Check out the picture of Bryan below, who is around 4 1/2 at the time. I think they look pretty similar!
