Anarchy In The CO

While our young daughter's musical tastes have leaned heavily toward reggae in her first weeks out of the womb, her style has been unquestionably influenced punk rock. In particular, she seems to be taking her fashion and hairstyling queues from the late Sex Pistol, Sid Vicious.
Her mother and I have had to take a firm stand with her concerning her desire for certain aggresive piercings and have had to say no to an expensive studded leather onsie. Rachel is a very live for the moment kind a gal and doesn't understand or doesn't care that she will just grow out of it in month or two anyway.

We are confident that this is just a phase that she is going through. When she matures a little bit Grandma Karen hopes that Rachel's interests will start leaning more toward Viennese Waltzes and square dancing. However, in the meantime we will love he no matter what her hair looks like.

I've found that if you sing the Clash's "(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais" slowly and quietly, it calms down a couple of twins.
