Color Association

 photo red_zps7a8808ed.jpg

Yesterday Macy and her nanny were at Lowes. While her nanny, Wanda, was carefully inspecting what to buy, Macy stood next to her closely examining the father and son duo approaching. As they came closer it became evident to both Wanda and Macy that this little boy, perhaps age 5, had the reddest hair known to man. Fire engine red.

Macy, confident that she innately understood this situation despite her 1.5 years in age, locked eyes with this boy, pointed directly at him so not to be mistaken with anyone else in the aisle, and screamed bloody murder, "ELMO!!!!".

Wanda, being the retired kindergarten teacher that she is, told Danny that this toddler thought process is called "color association". She also mentioned that this boy will need extensive therapy.

  1. poor kid - being a redheaded boy is rough! Not sure we've had any experience with the color association, but my 3 year old does like to ask (very loudly) every woman with short hair "why her a boy?!" - awesome. #thingsmykidssay

  3. That is fantastic. Way to go Macy :) I tend to always point out gingers while out. Maybe I should rethink that as I'm almost 30 and it may not be acceptable anymore... or is it? ha.
