Purple Hair Don't Care

Someone is turning over a New leaf for the New Year.  And that someone would be my son.  He just started classes at a University near our home.  One semester at Community College was enough for him.  If he manages not to flunk out...he will have 3 semesters at the University complete (along with the 12 credit hours he earned last semester) before he is an official Freshman.  He thought his community college professors were...how can I say it nicely...idiots.  Yes that's the nice version of what he thought.

 So let the make-over begin.  We had to bleach his hair....

Then I added purple.  See how it beautifully and artfully it fades into the brown.  Ok, well not everyone can see it.  But T and I can.  Its just what he wanted. 

 And now for the best part.  No your eyes do not deceive you...he is wearing JEANS (not track pants). And the briefcase is gone -replaced by a backpack and the trench coat is now a hoodie.  The hair is styled- the face washed.  I feel like all my mom-dreams have come true.

Dixie has helped out quite a bit with all the scheduling and planning

And finally...in a move that is sure to permanently keep me out of her room...J has added this light feature to her already club-like room lighting. 

Whatever the new year brings...its sure to be colorful around here.
