Colorful

Lillian’s favorite color is blue. She wants all of her things to be blue.

Lillian: Mom, blue my favorite color! I wove blue! I no want dis bowl, I want a blue bowl.

Mom: What should we do?

Lillian: Put dis pink bowl away and get a blue bowl.

or...

Lillian: I get all da blue toys. You no have blue toys, day not you color. Blue my color. I get da blue. Pink Abigail’s color and blue my color. You can have da yellow. I get all da blue.

So we have to be careful or Lillian thinks we have taken her things because they are blue.

Today Keith, Abigail and Lillian were painting. When Abigail said, "Dad, I need another color," Lillian continued with, "Dad, I need another blue color."

Her finished work consisted of several shades of blue.

I recall Abigail going through a similar favorite color episode – only her color was pink.
