This past Saturday Jake went to see his hairdresser (and our friend) Kristen who gave him the haircut that all little boys dream of getting…a Mohawk.

Jake’s new Mohawk matches his personality a little more closely than his “little boys” haircut. We went to the food store yesterday and a lot of people felt compelled to comment on his new “do”. Jake being Jake just smiled and said thank you each time someone commented on it.

Today was his first day back to school with his new haircut but he didn’t want me to make his Mohawk stick up. I guess he wants to keep his look a little more laid back for school. Understandable.

I’ve been asked the question “why would you let your five year old get a mohawk?”. My answer: “You’re only young once… so why not!”
