Color

I've known this about myself for a while now, but I was totally laughing at myself this morning.  I don't see color like I used to anymore.  Most of the time it's when I'm seeking out a red shirt, and end up with a pink one, or vice versa.  A few weeks ago, we were looking for new shoes for the girls, and I was asking if Parker liked a certain pair, and Chris looked at me weird, and said "those are purple"..we were looking for black!  I totally didn't believe him, so of course I asked Parker what color they were, and she confirmed to me that they were in fact purple!  Last night, I was putting together a collage for Brecken to take to class.  I was looking for white construction paper to do the project on, but could only find yellow.  I decided on pink instead since she liked that color, and finished up the project while the girls were playing.  I was pretty satisfied with the project, and Brecken was excited to show everyone at school the next day...Well this morning, when we got out of the car, in the daylight, I realized that the project was in fact on orange construction paper...Oh my, I've got issues!  I just totally laughed at myself..I so cannot see color the way I used to!

So while I was working on said project above, the girls were very busy...this is what I came into when I was all done! 

All of the pillows from the entire house, including the basement, and upstairs were on the floor covered by blankets.  The bench was the jumping board, to which they jumped into the pillows.  They were having a great time!!
