So, Sweet Little Helion (my 2 year old daughter) loves the color yellow. Maybe loves is an incorrect description - she is slightly obsessed with it. She searches out yellow cars and houses when we drive, then smiles and points them out to everyone. And you must acknowledge the yellow. She would live in her yellow butterfly shirt every day if I didn't tear it off her body to wash it - to the tears and rage that only a toddler can produce. So, the other night Beautiful Wife is upstairs putting SLH to bed and they were chatting a bit. She asked SLH what color she would paint her room if she had the choice, expecting full well that she would hear 'Yellow!' in her sweet little toddler voice which sounds closer to her saying 'Lellow'. Instead, SLH responds with 'Black.' in this deadpan, matter of fact way. Weird little kids.So, last night I am walking past SLH's room an hour after her bedtime and I hear her singing 'I love yellow, I love yellow' over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. She just repeated her yellow mantra for like 5 minutes. I think we are going to have to start a yellow cult or something...

Ok maybe not... I am too light skinned to wear that much yellow anyway... SLH will be devastated.
On another note, the other morning BW was getting ready for work, SLH was playing on the floor and Little Berserker Spawn, our 4 year old son, was sitting on our bed watching some news and eating some cheerios. BW had done something a little new with her hair that morning and I thought it looked really nice, so I said, "I really like your hair." Now, LBS wanted to also complement her, but did not want to copy me so he said, "Mommy, I really like yourrrrr... underwear!" I burst out laughing and BW was very kind and gracious, and said, 'Thank you, LBS.' While shooting the crazy laughing eyes at me. HAHAHAHA! To be fair, she was getting dressed and didn't have her pants on yet.
Punk Rock Friday - the Ramones
So, in honor of my funny kids I present to you for Punk Rock Friday their favorite songs: Do You Remember Rock N Roll Radio? and Rock N Roll High School. They Rock N Roll Radio is LBS' favorite while SLH switches between the two.
You don't *all* have to wear yellow. She can wear yellow. BS can wear blue. BW can wear red. And you can wear lime green. Or purple. You could be a skittles cult.
