This is how Brady's hair looked when he got up this morning.

And this is also how it looked when he went to school. (I thought the spikes were pretty impressive. I have no idea how he positions his body when he sleeps to achieve the look but it's unique.)

I've learned to really carefully pick my battles so I'm sure his teacher (and past teachers) think I'm incompetent, but it's okay. I don't really mind.

Truth be told, although the unkempt'ness of it makes me cringe a bit, I kind of love that he doesn't care what anyone else thinks. This is him, and he owns it. 

So for his willingness to march to the beat of his own (albeit messy) drum, I am grateful.
