My boy wants a beard

Tonight I get to draw a beard on my 8 year old. It's very important that he be an engineer and have a manly beard. It's key to the outfit for Trick-or-treating too because he doesn't really have a fantastic costume. We have to rely on good make-up.

Facial hair is a funny thing. When Nathan couldn't find the word for "mustache" in his language testing this summer, he used hand motions on his lip and said, "It's on a man's lip and it tickles." You can tell his daddy has a beard and mustache and gives kisses. Maybe that's why obtaining a beard is so important. Whatever it is, it helps get candy.
