Yeah, he really is! How do you like that curly mop on his head? He had Opie hair (only not red) before chemo. Now, he has lovely, soft curly hair. He started to hate it, but I kept telling him that "girls like curls". He wasn't terribly impressed w/ that at first. Then last week at the beach, some girls took notice of him and his curls! Now he likes them! And he turns 8 next week, but everyone thinks he's already 10 or 11 because he's so big (4'6" and 80 lbs). So the older girls really like him!
