I came home from work on Thursday to see my son with his beautiful white blonde hair completely missing from above his forehead! I walked in the door and was greeted with this look of "Oh no! Run!!! Wait, maybe she won't notice if I hold my hand over the bald spot!" It didn't work...I noticed. When I stopped laughing I assessed the damage and took him into the bathroom to clean off the remaining hair. When he and I walked into the bathroom, I hadn't yet turned on the light. Lo, and behold, my son was letting off an eerie green glow from his hands, shirt, face, and tummy. Come to find, he found my shears in the same drawer as my glow-in-the-dark paint that I used for their bedroom ceiling. He used it like lotion. And he glows. And has glowed for three days now.
I keep finding him covered in this strange substance that makes his skin pucker and look covered in weird goobers.
"I really, really, want to glow-in-the-dark at bedtime mommy!"
"Can I please glow a little longer?"
"Can just my tummy glow?"
Now, I have no idea which idea came first, the haircut or the glow-paint, but either way I look at it I giggle. Life will NEVER be plain or simple with this kid.
