Haircut Train Stories

without comments

Haircut day today. Before we begin, K begs me to read “the train book with the lemon on the front” while he’s getting his hair cut. Huh? I’ve never seen this one. I dig through his library books while J gets the bathroom ready for the upcoming adventure.

After an oblique reminder from J, it hits me. He’s talking about Fourier Series and Orthogonal Functions. Last time he had his hair cut, I used it as a prop while distracting him with invented train stories. Guess it should come out of the donation stack. Guess it’s showtime for Daddy.

Today’s chapters included “Shed Fred and the Case of the Missing Coupler” (introducing Forklift Frank), “Vector, the Runaway Locomotive,” and “How Lizard, Owl, Snake, and Kangaroo Rat Met the Desert Jaguar (a.k.a. Big Boy locomotive).”

Ultimately, his best haircut to date. Thanks, Mom, Shed Fred, and company!
