Is There A Barber In the House?

When a boy reaches the age of almost 5, he is given some rites and privileges.  Just ask Corban.  He'll start kindergarten AND barber school in the Fall!
The other day, while his mom was fixing a tile in the bathroom, Corban quickly and quietly got a pair of scissors from the kitchen drawer, went downstairs and did a makeover on his 3 year-old sister, Izzy.

Come on Corban, that rat tail is SO 80's! (side note - see Corban's toes in the top right of the picture?  That's his time-out spot)

 

Lucky for Izzy, her mom was able to save the disaster

and finish the makeover - with successful results!

Fast forward a week.  Corban, who must think he's Samson, finally consented to have a haircut.  Mom got out the clippers, then looked down (that was her mistake) to get the right sized guard.  Corban turned on the guard-less clippers and took a swipe on the top of his head.  I told you he was fast!

Mom made the most of the situation and aged him 70 years with this haircut.

Ahh, here he is.  All smiles and no hair! 

BTW, this was the conversation between Corban and his Dad the other night:
Corban, "Dad, I'm smarter than you!"
Dad, "Oh, why do you say that?"
Corban, "Because I have a hypothesis and you don't!"

Here's MY hypothesis:  Corban's kindergarten teacher better have eyes in the back of her head!
