Kids get trendy
Sometimes we do not take notice of our youngsters, unless they raise a ruckus. It is easy to ignore that tiny outstretched hand that is ready to receive a handshake; easy not to listen to what they have to say; easy to say no to their pleas. We are often inclined to think—my baby is…
