Fire

I was browsing in a local kids' consignment shop yesterday and found a cute green sweater I thought Lucia might like. But when I took it off the rack, I noticed a large tag inside: KEEP AWAY FROM FIRE. I snorted out loud. I wonder if there are any parents out there who need to be reminded--nay, told even once--to keep their baby's clothes (and, of course, the babies themselves) away from fire. It's a scary and ridiculous thought. I put the sweater back, though. Anything that comes with a warning like that seems just a bit too much on the flammable side for comfort.
