Hubby responded by saying "Okay, sure son", I piped in and advised him the longer he leaves it the better, as once he starts he has to commit to it as a routine - I was grasping hold of straws and panicking ever so slightly because the thought of my baby shaving is a scary milestone! There was me thinking that once he started shaving he would have to shave at least every other day, but hubby keeping calm as always, explained not at his age, it will be once every couple of weeks. So I smiled and advised Liam it was his decision, if that will make him happy, I will support that.
They disappeared up stairs for a good 20 minutes and hubby talked him through shaving and demonstrated the best way, and then Liam carried out his first shave!
I don't know why I panicked, but Liam is a responsible young man, he takes care of himself and he takes pride in his appearance and his personal hygiene.
I am proud of my son, he came to us for advice and guidance, he trusts us, he knows we respect his judgement and that means a lot to me as a parent.What milestone have you experienced with your child recently?
