Recently Addie has been enjoying colors. She likes to point to colors and tell us what they are.. although everything seems to be “ba” or “pa”… I try my best to tell her as many colors as I can.

Today I took one of those re-usable grocery bags to work,

Do you see where this is going? She points to the bag and I say “Orange. It’s and Orange Grocery Bag.”

Then she points to the words on the bag…”green” it says. So… “Green” I say, Addie looks at me a bit confused and says “ba”.

Yes, I tell her “Bag. Orange Grocery Bag.” Again, she points to the words.

I have to admit, at this time I am trying not to laugh and praying for a bird to fly overhead or a car to drive by, as the look gets more and more puzzled.

“Green” I say with a smile and a giggle…”The WORD says GREEN, the bag is ORANGE.”

She just stared at me.
