Are you Blue?

Tonight, as we were driving around in our car, Emily started singing the song from Veggie Tales "Madam Blueberry" "I'm so blue hoo hoo blue hoo hoo blue hoo hoo hoo, I'm so blue I don't know what to do." For those not up on their Veggie Tales, Madam Blueberry has envy issues and wants everything everyone else has. She is singing this song over her sadness for not having the things she wants. It is a great lesson on being content with what God has given you. Anyway, back to Emily singing. She sang this chorus around 5 times when I turned around and asked "Are you blue?" She looked right at me and said, "No, I am white." Randon and I looked at each other and just burst out in laughter. It never occured to me she was literally thinking about the color blue, I guess. She probably thought I was a crazy asking such a question! I think what amazed me more was how she identified herself white, when we have never discussed racial color before. She constantly amazes us and fills our lives with laughter! Anyone with a toddler knows what I mean!

If that is only supposed to be a toddler thing, my high school girls are in trouble!

Ginger McBride here. Tell Randon howdy and stop by my blog when you get the chance.

Just wait until you are in an elevator and she asks you about the color of the person next to you. Not so funny.
