One of my little boys came in this morning with both of his hands pressed tight to the top of his head. He usually stands kind of funny anyway, so I thought he was just being goofy. As he washed his hands first thing in the morning, as we do, he was hunched strangely over the sink. He dried his hands and continued to hold his head. I asked him if he felt OK, and he nodded yes.
He went over to the book area and grabbed a book, looking at it one-handed with one hand pressed to his head. My morning aid came in and I said it was a concern for him. maybe he had a headache? She quietly told me, “His mom told me that his brother accidentally shaved a spot off his head last night.”
Oh.
Poor kid. Hold your head all you want.

Awww… I feel for him. Though my problem is usually food I spill on my shirt, and then I hold my hand there all day…
