pretty in pink

everyone that knows me knows i was pretty insistent on not having children. but if i was going to have them they would be boys. well, obviously that just wasn't true. in either case. everyone that knows me also knows that my least favorite color in the whole entire universe is pink. and the child that could not possibly be a girl looks outstanding in that color they call pink. and as if that wasn't bad enough along came yesterday. i about died. while outside, will jumped on his big wheel and off he went around and around all by himself. not the diva. which is par for the course. she gets chauffeured around in her car that has a pole on the back. just for me. you know, so she doesn't have to do any physical labor. well, while i was driving miss sophie up pops her hand. and she starts waving. with a cupped hand. instinctively. like she's miss ten miles south of common sense. in a freaking parade. there is hope however. her gran keeps bringing her baby dolls and she won't touch them. that a girl, sophie, that a girl.
