Handsome Dude.
What were you doing in my room?
Did you hide something in your pockets again?
Please stop taking my earrings.
I don't want to wear blue earrings today.
Seriously.
Blue earrings to not match my overly bright red pullover fleece.
Clearly, you do not have a future in fashion, dude.
Then again, neither do I.
But that is besides the point.
Turquoise blue earrings cannot go with bright red.
No.
They simply cannot.
I know you love them.
You pick them out for me every day.
Dude.
I said no.
I am already wearing my super cool, oversized costume earrings that are more neutral in color.
No blue today.
No.
Fine.
I'll wear blue.
Attention all fashion-conscious adults who might see me in the next 2 weeks-2 years (or however long this phase of his lasts):
Please make every attempt to ignore me and my newly-accessorized self.
I fear I will clash every day.
But, you see, I have this boy:
and for now, all he wants is for his mother to wear her blue earrings.
True.
They are cheap earrings.
I bought them from Walmart.
They came in a pack of 3 for $4.
But irregardless of how cheap they are, my boy thinks I am beautiful in them.
And I have a hunch that he won't sneak upstairs, pick out the prettiest blue earrings he can find, and proudly present them to me when he is a teenager.
I doubt that he will continuosly move my hair from my face to check and make sure I am wearing the blue earrings forever.
I am certain he will not always grin and clap when he sees that his earrings of choice are where they rightfully belong.
So for now . . .
I will probably wear my blue earrings.
Every.
Single.
Day.
Oh, Handsome Dude.
Please don't ever grow up.
