Its Starting

I'm not sure its obvious in this picture. Eliot's really getting 'steroid face'. I regret (I'm not going to gloss over it - I know I shouldn't regret it and I do and I also shouldn't 'shouldn't' myself - there there it is - I regret this) not taking a picture of him each day this week. I could almost see the puffiness get more and more each day. Not a lot more. Still more.

He also put his sweet head on my knee yesterday and I massaged his head for a while. I noticed several of his beautiful, fine, blonde hairs on his shirt and then in my hand and when he sat up on my leg.

I can't really tell his hair is leaving. I'm sure as time goes on here it will become more and more obvious to me and others.

I was feeling really sad about his hair going about ten days ago. I feel less sad about his hair now. Now I still mostly feel sad about his eye lashes. Look at those eye lashes.

Is it vanity. Is it fear of change. Is it silly. Is it totally understandable. Yes.
