Shaving as a Team Sport

It was too cute not to talk about. This morning I was off to a sluggish start to the day. My wife was already out the door for work and my daughter was asleep on our bed after having joined us for an early morning snuggle. While attempting to make myself presentable, I heard my daughter stir. I turned off my razor and poked my head into the bedroom.

Her smile and happy giggle turned the morning around so I stole a few moments to be with her -- still on our bed and complete with the razor in my hand. She was in a good mood and I wanted to enforce that before she would start screaming for mommy. It was during this that my daughter invented Team Shaving.

The rules for Team Shaving are simple:

1. Turn the razor on.
2. Put the razor on dad's face.
3. Add your own razor noise as you help dad shave.
4. After 10 seconds of moving the razor around, pull it back and squint.
5. Turn the razor off
6. Pucker up for a kiss
7. Giggle when kiss is given
8. Repeat, starting at (1) until satisfied.
9. Pounce!!!
10. [optional] Briefly exchange roles.

I hope your days start off just as wonderfully.
