Today Zach was holding 2 plates, one yellow and one pink.
Zach: "Mom, which plate do you want? You are wearing a red shirt, so you need a red plate." He held out the pink plate but paused and looked at it. "This is pink, not red. Pink is for dwirls."
Me: "Pink is for girls, huh? How do you know that?"
Zach: "Because it's not for boys, this plate is not mine."
Me: "Who is a girl?"
Zach: "You are, Shea (not "mom"). So this plate is for you."
Me: "What about that pink bowl over there?" He had been eating from that bowl earlier.
Zach: "That's for dwirls. Pink is for dwirls."
Me: "So what color is for boys, then?"
Zach: "Um, yellow and green and blue"
Thank you Zach for the lesson in gender. This is the first time I've noticed him assign anything to boys and girls. Guess he's growing up.

Zack is so smart. I'm not surprised he's already working this out. I like your blog. This is fun isn't it?
Awww. Shea. I love your blog. You have the most beautiful family. :) I think that "Pink is for duorals" was my favorite part.
I love it! Pink is for duorls Shea, didn't you know? :)
I was gonna say that you should write that down so you won't forget. But you just did that didn't you? I'm smart like that!
