Dr. Nancy always has really good advice. My favorite is one of her go to’s: Don’t worry. Have you ever seen an adult walking around with X? (insert big belly button, whites of the eye that are gray, pink splotchy neck, etc.)
I remind myself of this when the sunlight catches Jakey’s hair. Ever since he was an itty bitty baby, he’s had this peninsula of blond hair that goes from his hairline down to his left eyebrow and back up. I refer to it as “Florida.”
I’ve been thinking that of course this hair anomaly would fall out and one day I’d say “Awwww, Florida is gone. How sad.” Then again, I also thought my son would have more than a dusting of hair by 13 months given his parents’ thick mops.
I can still see Florida in the sunshine. Sometimes I have to remind myself of Dr. Nancy’s advice… When was the last time you saw an adult who’s hairline went down and touched their eyebrow and back up again? Never, right? Right? (If you have… maybe you shouldn’t tell me.)
