They don't even use theirs during the day for fear of missing a phone call.

I like to pretend it's because of my sweet personality, but it's probably due to the overabundance of candy I eat.<BR/><BR/>How do you stop mosquitoes from biting a kid, anyways?Run ANChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06088821030860597465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31853698.post-2784504722645758812007-07-11T12:00:00.000-05:002007-07-11T12:00:00.000-05:00Hipsters in general always strike me as trying too...Hipsters in general always strike me as trying too hard, and being a hipster parent doesn't seem like that great a goal - if someone IS a hipster parent naturally, then fine, I guess.
