Way Back When-esday

Cheryl over at Twinfatuation hosts this one. Go on over to see who else is playing – and join in too!

This one is from November 13, 2006. Maggie was a few months shy of 2.

“Be Purple, Mommy”

Maggie says this to me throughout the day: when I’m carrying her down the stairs, when I’m brushing her hair, if I’m about to tip something – or someone – over…

Each time she says it, it cracks me up – cuz I’d love to be purple for a day! And it’s one of her favorite colors (right there after pink – whose girly girl is this??), so how cool would it be to turn the favorite color of one of your kids (for a day, anyway)?

What she’s REALLY trying to say to me is what we say to her all day long: “Be careful, Mommy.” I love this colorful (pun intended) reminder to me – especially since she says it at the appropriate times.

So, yes, dear Maggie. I will be purple.
