{highlights}

this morning on the way to school noah asked me if he was too old for highlights. the question did not really shock me as one of his little buddies in his class came back to school this year with a few highlights in his hair. i am not saying it is a choice i want for noah, nor do i have any thoughts about his little friends hair. but, nevertheless, the question was posed.

i then asked, do you mean too young?

no, mom, too old, am i too old for highlights?

noah, i think you are confused. right now, you are seven and all we need to do to your hair at the age of 7 is make certain you wash and dry it. end of story.

he was quite perplexed. mom, what in the world are you talking about? i.need.to.know.if.i'm. too.old.to. read.highlights?

oh.......Highlights the magazine, not highlights as in the hair of the little boy that sits next to you in class. it's a monday! whew!

I would make a bargain. Maybe settle for "tips." Hopefully colors such as blue will not come up in the discussion.
