We all know about princesses and little girls, don't we? Now that I am a mom, I am convinced that ALL little girls dream of becoming a princess someday, or even now believe that they are princesses who deserve all pink and fluffy things.
There is a section in any mall ...

We need a stereo cabinet. No, we need a stereo cabinet that has space for a huge television way up on its shelves. But then again, I think we'll just settle for television that doesn't have an off/on button on its front part.
The baby hogs the television at home! ...
