The other morning while bringing Josiah to his daycare room, one of the preschoolers eating his breakfast asked me politely “Why does that baby have a helmet on his head”. I responded with the first thing that came to my mind, “Well because he is a super hero and he needs it for all of his stunts”. “Oh” replied the big eyed boy and walked away.

It seems since Josiah started wearing his cranio cap on August 3rd we’ve had many people inquire about his “special hat” as we refer to it around Olivia.  The truth is that because of his stiff neck as a newborn he laid one direction and flattened out his skull.  The Cranio was designed to give him a more round about cranio.  He has taken wearing it like a champ, 23 hours a day.

Josiah is now approaching what we hope to be his final weeks with the helmet and there has not been a quicker ten weeks. In August, October 30th seemed like a decade away. I’ve had these images brewing in my head since Gillette’s fitted him with his plastic ball of happiness weeks ago.
