That is what the youngest asked today. And then the oldest asked if she could get one for Christmas. I'm not sure why I was surprised. The father just shook his head.
Our girls (4 years and 2 years) are insanely girlie. We live in a sea of tutus, dolls, purses, and make-up. A closet full of dress up clothes. A trunk full of princess shoes and accessories.
They chose this. I did not want to push pink on them. Their nursery was yellow with jungle animals. I bought them blocks, legos, and dolls. As soon as they were old enough to choose on their own, them wanted pink or purple. They wanted dresses. They wanted tutus. I have to force them to wear pants when it is cold.
Could these children really be mine? In my friend Candra's blog (http://curiousgeorgi.blogspot.com/ ) she wonders, "how someone so pink ended up with so much blue." I feel the opposite. How did someone so blue end up with so much pink?
"Mommy, why don't you wear make-up?"
"Mommy, can you please wear more dresses?"
Seriously?!? I think God gave me my pink girls so He could have a good chuckle. Nature vs. Nurture? In our house, Nature wins.
cute!!!

Candi - Hope you don't mind. Guess I should have asked first. Next time I will ask. If I remember.
ReplyDeleteUpdate: I showed this post to Abby. She looked at all the shoes and said, "Where are my Tinkerbell ones?"
ReplyDeleteI had given them and several of the other pairs away a few weeks back. Oops.
Well, sweetie, I was a pretty girlie girl, and look what I ended up with!
