I cut Espen's hair today! It was sort of an accident..... Doug wanted a hair cut & doens't have time to make an appoitment so we put Espen in the tub & I cut Doug's hair. Espen was very curious and mimiced me. When I finished I took him out of the tub & sat him in my lap & took the clippers and played with them on his arms & legs and head... then I turned it on and did the same things... he was giggling! So I took a swipe of his curly locks... and then another and another until I was finished... For the most part he sat & played with the hair that was falling on him. So he has had his second hair cut! And I'm not nearly as stressed as I was the last time... because there are curls left.. he is not bald!!! So it was cute!!

But we were sad today also because Anders went back to Dodge City... and all after noon Espen looked for him... so we have a week ahead of us where Espen looks for Anders all over all day... but we will get through it... We will let Espen talk to Anders on the phone & it will help.... It makes me sad that Espen is so desparetly looking for his best friend & brother...

Tomorrow we are off to exchange some gifts & get a book...
