Outfit Your Young Punk, For Free!

My favorite thing about Braden is all the fun I’ve had dressing him in adorable clothes and seeing how cute he looks in them.
Okay, so it’s not really my favorite thing about him – but it’s in the Top 10. And no, I was not deprived of dolls when I was little, I just like it, okay?
I’m really not sure why I enjoy it so much, but there’s just something about seeing him wearing miniature blue jeans or a tiny cool-guy T-shirt that makes me all giddy.
And I bet I’m not the only one. I see you out there. Fellow Baby Dress Up Adorers. You, too, love to find fun clothes for your little ones!
Well, if you’re on the quest for fun clothes for your kiddo that are cool, comfortable, and high-quality, you really should not miss out on the great finds at YoungPunks.com! There are sizes there to fit kids anywhere from 3 months to 12 years.
Ever since Braden choked on his own vomit, we’ve decided that he’s got some of Jimi Hendrix’s soul in him. Hence, our choice of shirt from the YoungPunks line for him.
And I must say, he rocks this shirt. It’s cool, soft, and durable. He looks Adorable and Badass in it at the same time. Perfect!
He loves wearing it! I wonder how he would react if I took it away?
“Hey, Braden! How would you feel if Momma took your YoungPunks T-Shirt Away?”
Just what I expected.
A dad, Phil Rowntree, was looking for genuinely cool clothes for his son, Fionn, and took matters into his own hands. He creates all of these shirts himself – from the ideas for the designs right down to the actual creation of the finished product. How cool is that?
Most of the shirts at YoungPunks are black (a nice break from white, blue, & pink), all of the designs are super-cool, and the material? 100% cotton and made in the USA by American Apparel. Doesn’t get any better than that.
And there’s something for everyone in his designs. Some are humorous, some make a statement, and all are just plain hip. Go check them out - you’re sure to love them.
Now that I have you hooked…

Saturday night I
realized: We’re sick again.
John came home Sunday.
He was set to leave
on Monday. But then a change.
He’d stay through Wednesday!
A loss of money,
but a blessing in that he
could take care of us.
Monday night, the boy
was very restless, needy.
John was at his call.
Braden cried out so
John went to soothe and comfort.
Sick, I stayed in bed.
But, by monitor,
I heard gagging and choking,
struggling to breathe.
Before I could think
I was halfway there, body
propelled to his side.
My kid was trying
to pull a Jimi Hendrix.
Heart attack for me.
Much adrenalin.
Later, while attempting to
rock him back to sleep…
My body trembled.
So much at stake; every
moment is fragile.
How will I ever
Be able to let him go?
This wisdom eludes.
