Oh, Nate, I am so sorry!!!
That's what I said last night as I started giving Nate a haircut. I don't even know what you call those things that you put on the end of the clippers to keep from buzzing his hair when you cut it, but I forgot to put it on. My mind is always in 5 different places at once, and I think that is probably a bad trait for your hairdresser to have. I was talking and moving along at a 100 mph trying to get this haircut done before I went to finish up my preparations for my sharing time at church today. I got partway up that first strip of hair and froze. He handled it so much better than I did. I was crying and laughing and was just hysterical, and he stayed so calm!! I don't know how he did it. It is such a good thing our roles weren't reversed in that moment! He wanted me to just buzz it all off, but I couldn't do it. His hair is just too pretty. This picture is just halfway into the haircut, and I never did get a picture of the finished product, but I was able to blend it in a bit. I wasn't crying anymore by the time I finished it, anyway. He didn't mention any comments from church today, so either it wasn't too bad or it was so bad nobody could come up with a decent remark. :) Hopefully by the time he makes it home this weekend it won't even be noticeable at all. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

I didn't see it today, so your blending must have worked. :) Cory and I had a similar haircut when I first started doing his. I was in tears and vowed never to cut it again. :) He ended up having to go to the barber to finish it. I have improved since then, I think. :)
I did that once to my husband and never had to cut his hair again. Now he does it!
How did you cut his hair with his glasses still on :)
I know I shouldn't be laughing right now but that is just funny. I get scared EVERY time I cut Phil's hair. I know I will do the same thing one day. Maybe I should pre-warn him or just be grateful that I too am married to a patient, very loving man.
I did that to Jay about 10 years ago - right before we flew out for a NC beach trip. I had to hear it from Billy Lewis etc...just imagine the teasing! Next week you won't be able to even tell.
AWESOME!! Josh has caught me a couple times with the wrong size on the clippers when I'm chatting & not paying attention. I can picture you laughing/crying...it makes me laugh!
