This morning was a very sleepy, rainy, stormy, miserable way to start the day. I’d spent the night listening to a furious thunderstorm so I wasn’t feeling very alert when I came into work. I was preparing my lessons when suddenly I heard a familiar voice call out “Hello!” into the room. I look up and respond… and then do a double take. Is that Gavin? The first words that leave my mouth are “Where did your hair go?” Gavin replies, “I left it at home.” Seeing Gavin missing a good portion of his hair does a great job of waking me up at that point. Later on, I make sure to mention to Gavin that he has a few unruly hair strands sticking up around the spot on his head that he fondly refers to as his “crop circle.”
