FHB: Fuzz, Meet Electric Razor
Frum Helen Back:
Grandson Drew, now 11, sat down next to me and told me that he is sure
he needs to start shaving. By George, I could see a bit of fuzz above
his upper lip. “You’re becoming
a man!” I told him. Then he asked me if
I would take him shopping for some men’s deodorant and men’s shampoo.
“Of course I will!” I said. He then told me that he got a small
container of Old Spice deodorant at school but he knows he’ll go
through it really fast. Then it dawned on me what this was all about.
“You watched your sex movie at school today, didn’t you?” I asked. He
reminded me that he saw the movie about boys and puberty this year.
Next years he sees the movie about girls and then in seventh grade it’s
about sex. So tonight, after Hil’s game, we’ll be going to WalMart to
buy some men stuff, including an electric razor.
Question: When did you start shaving?
