(I hope, I hope that the fad is long past by the time my girl is 10 or so.)<BR/><BR/>While the princess and Bratz crazes scare me, they don't scare me as much as the potential for actual danger that comes along with some of the boy-toy subculture.

Sometimes I...I completely understand how you feel. Sometimes I think when our 2nd comes along I hope it's a boy. Then we spend time with friends who have boys... and I completely hope for another girl. They just generally seem calmer.<BR/><BR/>I do have to say that I wouldn't mind if the huge baggy flannel shirt look came back into style by the time Zoe is a teenager. I was at the mall and saw a group of girls who had to be about 13... but before looking too closely I would have thought they were all college students.

My daughter can sit there and draw a picture or color in a book for two hours. He cannot eat a cookie without destroying the kitchen.<BR/><BR/>Kim, by the way, great blog!

I understand that more than half of the team he is playing with are girls (who I have seen can really whoop some ass).<BR/><BR/>http://amurderofcrows.spaces.live.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
