Green

“What is your name? What is your middle name? What color is your house?” This is what Kaylin asks everyone she encounters. The most common color answer is “beige.” She does not know what that is. So, if you are currently building a house (m/d :) you may want to reconsider your siding color, or be prepared to tell her “light brown” and watch her wrinkle up her face. Kaylin Jo Johnson has a green house. Her face lights up every time we pull in the driveway, as she exclaims “it’s our green house!”

Today we are traveling across Wisconsin and we stopped at a McD’s playland to give the kids a break from their carseats. At first Kaylin did not want to play, for two reasons: There were no green slides (pink, purple, and yellow weren’t good enough), and the obvious – the other kids were being too noisy.

I have suspected green to be her favorite color since she was a baby and seemed to prefer the green toy hanging on the bar of her bouncy seat.

Update July 10: I asked her what color her house was. She said “brown. Brown is my favorite color.” WHAT?!
