So apparently, as the recipient of this award, the rules are that I should blog about a Keepsake Moment, and then tag other blogs who I think are keepsakes. I started to stress about remembering a moment, and just then, one happened.
With #3 down for a nap last Saturday afternoon, I sat down on the couch to relax for a few minutes. Daredevil was in the playroom. Diva was out of the house with Hunter. All of a sudden, Daredevil ran in the room, silently handed me a little envelope, and ran out of the room. I opened the envelope and it contained a little note in the shape of a star. It said this:


Yes, that's right. My baby got a full MOHAWK last week.
Before he went to the barber shop with his Daddy, he looked like this:


Hunter said it was entirely Daredevil's idea and decision, and in letting him do it he figured it's summer, it's just hair, and it will grow out by the time school starts. All good arguments.
So Daredevil now thinks he's a badass. And he's a rock star at his summer camp, where all his peers now want mohawks too. I'm sure the parents are cursing us. Since he thinks he's so tough, here is his tough guy look:

But, I digress. Back to the Keepsake Award. I am now to bestow it on some of my favorite blogs. Check them out!
- Swiss Family Taylor - great stories and pictures about an American family's adventures living in Switzerland
- PTLaw-Mom - because she's feeling a little overwhelmed lately.
- Hip Moms Who Work - because I really like this blog. I work, but am neither hip nor cool, although I would like to be :)
- CrAzY Working Mom - because being overwhelmed and crazy is often fun.
- MckMama - because I love this blog too. I love looking at her amazing photography.

Awww, thanks for the award! I love it. :) And I love the mohawk. My little guy got one a while back. I thought it was super cute but his Dad shaved it off. Nice...
The pictures are adorable. Nice mohawn. My nine year old wants one too and I have been hesitant.
I am SO flattered to receive the Keepsake Award from you. Loved your keepsake story. Funny how those moments happen when you need them most.
Am trying to come up with my keepsake moment now. Hmmm...Maybe if I bribe the kids with ice cream...
Wow! An award. The only thing that can top this is having a box show up at me door with a stocking leg lamp in it. Many thanks.
