Since when is "Handsome" a bad thing?


This little tale happened at the beginning of the school year, and I just forgot until now to blog about it.
Christian's class has a class directory that they give to each student. You can opt into the directory at the beginning of the school year by filling out a form with your student's name, phone number, email address and a picture of the student. I was filling out the class directory form along with all the other forms that get sent home at the beginning of the school year.
I never print out pictures because I usually just blog everything and then print my blog into a book, so I don't have a ton of pictures laying around. So I grabbed the only picture I had and it happened to be the picture you see above.
I trimmed it up, glued it to the form and sent it back to school. 
Several days later Christian got of the bus and I could tell something was immediately wrong. By the time we got in the house he was crying.
---------
"Mom, how could you put that picture of me in directory?"
I'm baffled at this point...."What's wrong with the picture, Christian?"
"I look handsome and cute. I don't look cool at all and everybody saw that handsome picture of me."

And I'm guessing since you are blogging, you have survived the hurricane :)
