Experiencing the impossible

When it happens, the impossible, we sit there shocked. Stunned, knowing the world will never be the same.

1969 - man walks on the moon
2004 - Red Sox win the World Series
2008 - Obama is elected President

But those pale... to December 2, 2008 when Grant pulled the hair cutting kit down from the top shelf in the closet, pulled a chair out from the table, put the plastic covering over his shoulders, and then ASKED FOR A HAIRCUT!

For years, giving Grant a haircut was pure torture, for everybody. The past 2 years, it's gotten better, but it has still always been a challenge to get him in the chair, to stay in the chair - UGH, it's just a huge struggle.

So for him to ask for a haircut, well, we have simply experienced the impossible. And just as with the other impossible things which our generation has experienced where life goes on the next day but 'different', so goes our lives here at home. That painful part of our history is gone, done, kaput. A bright future lies ahead!!
