Finally...

David trying to be so trusting...




This was a major turning point in our relationship :-). I was so excited that David let me cut his hair last night. I have wanted to do it for a while but David has such a tight relationship with Ralph his barber that is was hard for him to let me cut his hair. But last night, when we went for dinner at his cousin Cindy and Al's house, David let Cindy walk me through cutting his hair. Cindy cuts her husband's and kids' hair. What is hilarious is that David prayed with and for me before I started that God would guide my hands - I know that God instructs us to give all our anxiety to Him but I thought this was too funny. He was so nervous! I would have loved to have my Faith (my sister the hairdresser) show me some tricks, but maybe when we are home for Christmas in PA she will. There were a couple "oops" spots , but overall, David thought I did a good job. I learned that it's not very reassuring the say "Oops" when you are standing behind someone with clippers in your hand - it's kind of like as a nurse, when doing a procedure of any kind on a patient, it's also not a good thing to say "oops" in the middle :-). I've included 2 pictures of the final result - pretty good for a first time, huh?
