So, my four-year-old-Little-Lady has decided to change her favourite colour from PINK to purple. 

Which is fine. Everyone has the right to pick their favourite colour right? It's like one of those basic human instincts that we all have.

I like blue. Ohhhh, I love blue! It's so calming and relaxing and fresh. It makes me happy. :-)

However. If you have a favourite colour, and you then choose to change your favourite colour into something completely different, please oh please let your Mum know! *sigh* For the sake of sanity, let her know.

I went out shopping this morning. I had just a few more supplies to get for the birth, and while I was out I thought I'd pick up a couple of long-sleeved (it's been chilly in Rocky these last few mornings! Crazy huh! I wasn't prepared for that... last year we didn't even need jerseys!) shirts for Livvy and a pair of shoes. (She had to go to church this morning with ballet shoes that had almost no soles. Poor Baby. It was way past time for some new shoes!)
So anyway. I got her some pink shirts and some pink shoes. Merely trying to be the nice Mummy that I know is hiding in me somewhere!

When she got home from church, I took great delight in getting her to sit on our bed, so I could surprise her with this wonderful treat.

Well. I got tears. Big fat shuddering tears. The kind that make you wanna cry yourself because the person is obviously in agony of spirit.

Somewhere, somehow I must have missed the "changing colours" memo, because apparently it was common knowledge around here.

I look forward to giving birth and transforming into the wonder mum who's always in tune with her babies little quirks. Until then, I guess I shall just muddle on, always getting it wrong, but trying ohh so hard!
