why don't I learn

Do you ever do something, and it reminds you of something you did before and both things resulted in you crying and you think, why don't I just learn? Let me explain. A long long time ago, when Drew and I were newlyweds (so like 4 years ago), I attempted to cut Drew's hair. It was a horrible mess but Drew kept assuring me that it looked just fine. We went to his parents house that night and his dad said something to the affect of, "son that is the worst haircut! you need to go get your money back!" It has since become a family joke. Well, last night we were talking about how T needed a haircut. I had cut his hair not too long ago (using clippers this time) and it worked out just fine so I thought I should attempt it again. But in my wisdom I thought, "cutting his hair is kind of a pain in the rear so I should cut it a little shorter so it lasts longer!" I picked what looked like a great size and took my first swipe through his hair. Thats when it hit me. This was not a little shorter, this was mega stinkin uber shorter. I wanted to stop, or at least change sizes but my first swipe was a good long one down the middle of his head. There was no going back. I took two more wipes and was bawling so hard that I couldn't see anymore. Drew and his brother were just looking at me like, "what should we do?" and I turned off the clippers, set T down and ran to my room bawling. I somehow convinced Brookie that this was a real tragedy cause a few minutes later she came in my room bawling and saying, "oh no, T-Rays hair is so short!". I know it sounds dumb but I was devastated thinking, "will I ever be able to look at my son and not cry again??" Drew and his brother finished the job and the damage is done. Maybe $10 a month at great clips is worth it!
