Colors According to Dylan...



Back when I was pregnant with Lennox, Dylan was able to come to several of my sonograms at my specialist's office. Well, the sonogram machine was connected to a huge flat screen TV mounted on the wall. While we would wait for the doctor to arrive to perform the exam, a screen saver would pop up. One of the many pictures that would scroll across the screen was that of a set of babies lined up in only diapers. They were cute little chunky babies, of all shapes and shades. Well, one in particular caught Dylan's eye. She was a little African American baby girl with big, curly hair. Well, that is when Dylan asked me one of the sweetest questions, "Mommy, can we get one of those brown babies next time?" I grinned a big grin and answered her, "I sure hope so."

Dylan most certainly is not color-blind. She sees every color people come in plain as day and in her own words, upon viewing an Asian woman, "She's beautiful."
