You all have totally cracked me up. This so reminds me of the virtual pet key chains that use to be so popular. I would jump when my keychain beeped.
I do not recall ever having a parenting course when I was in high school. I so want a baby, but I am getting older every day. I am also very selfish and can't imagine doing what I want when I want. Then again maybe what I will want is to cuddle the baby.
