Yesterday I was driving down McKercher, and was stopped at a red light. I looked at the car next to me, and noticed a 'Baby on Board' placard in the back window. So I started thinking. Think that the sign is there for a reason, to let people know that there is precious cargo on board. But what is this supposed to mean? Looking deeper, it means 'if you are gunna rear end someone, rear end the guy next to me, they don't have a baby on board.' I mean really??? I have a dog riding shot gun, I need to get a sign that says 'Cute pooch on board'. Or maybe if you are giving an elderly person a ride to their appointment, do you need a sign that says 'Old person on Board'. Where will it end?? I know this isn't a new phenomenon, but it is precisly why I get annoyed at new parents these days. I know, you want to protect your child, watch over them, hover. But c'mon already.

On another note, I do happen to love those stickers on the back windows of soccer moms' mini vans. The one symobolizing your family with stick figures. I like these ony because the other day I saw a little diagram on the back window of an SUV...it was a stick man, stick woman, 2 stick dogs and a stick cat. This made me laugh a little. I woulda laughed more if it was a stick lady and 5 stick cats...I'm keeping my eyes open for that one!

I better get out there and strt removing the two feet of snow from my walk. Take care and happy shoveling!

  1. There is actually an app on facebook where you can make those but I saw one online somewhere that you could make it and actually order it as a sticker (or a T-Shirt, coffee mug, mousepad, etc) exactly as your family is! You can even pick little details like glasses or soccer balls or skateboards and stuff..
