This past weekend, my parents gave Hawk a late birthday present.  They gave him a really cool airplane set thingy that only came with one airplane, so they had to buy him all of the others to go with it.  That wasn't the bad part. Deep in the bag was this, but in orange.  To add insult to injury, my mom felt she needed to give Braxton one in green. Seriously, go check out the NEVER, ever, buy these for your kids if you do not want to be cleaning up bright colors all over your house.  Sure, it's tons…
