This week, Evelyn's teacher has asked that the students wear Red on Monday, Orange on Tuesday, Yellow on Wednesday, ...etc. you get the picture. Evelyn wanted to wear a shirt that is primarily black, but has three candy corn on the front (it was a Halloween shirt from last year). There is orange in candy corn, but we're talking about a pretty small amount of orange on some pretty small candy corn images. She told me about a kid in her class who confronted her about the lack of orange on her shirt: "This kid, Mom, was so sassy to me. She said I didn't have orange on in an ugly way and she was WRONG. I don't have to listen to her. I know i'm right."
Oh boy. I am looking forward to this kind of conversation with her when she's a teenager. She'll be convinced she's right at any given moment. Wish us luck.
