Bradley is the coolest boy I know! His awesome mohawk just really seals the deal! He has been asking us for a few weeks if he could have a mohawk. We asked him if he was totally sure AND if he would be able to tolerate all the attention that such a hairstyle would bring. He said he wanted to do it and was fine with people commenting and touching his hair. So, this past weekend, we gave him a mohawk. Brad was sooo excited! He's really proud of it and thinks it is SOOO cool! Here's the reason why he got it into his head that he wanted a mohawk. There are 2 brothers (who were 4th and 5th graders)who go to our homeschool group and last year, they took him under their wing (as a little kindergartener) and let him play with them during recess. The oldest brother called him "little Brad" and told his mom that Bradley reminded him of himself when he was that age. They both liked Star Wars and the older boy said he looked like him in kindergarten with his short hair cut. Bradley was thrilled by all this attention. He learned how to play "Capture the Flag" and felt like a rock star. This year,(since the older brother has moved onto another school adventure), the younger brother, who is now in 5th grade, has taken Bradley under his "wing". He has been very kind and inclusive of him and guess what...he has a MOHAWK!! So, Nick and I knew immediately why Brad wanted a mohawk and honestly, we thought it was pretty cute. I'm happy that he wants to be like these nice, older boys who have set a good example for him. We love our sweet boy and his ideas about what makes him feel good and confident. And, we're thankful for older boys who have such a good heart and take the time to be nice to a young and impressionable little boy. And, did I mention that I LOVE Brad's mohawk? I think he is such a good looking boy and he gets cuter every day! We love our cool son! :)
