but it sure is a lot of fun to LOVE the color green, well, for Jackson, that is. Jackson is obsessed with the color green. It started out as preferring and has moved to full-blown obsessed.
He sorts through toys to find the items that are green to take them away from Connor and anybody else that he is playing with. Several examples include:
1)Ransacking the alphabet train for the letter X, which happens to be green. Michael and I didn't realize what was happening but quickly picked up that he would search and search through all 26 alphabet blocks until he found his coveted letter X. I hid the X to confirm what was going on and he was pacing in concern that it was lost and when he started to cry--I gave it to him.
2) Remove the green balls from his V Tech bus and airplane that sounds like it is landing in Kuwait (another story for another post) to the point of me having to be on a search almost every night trying to recover the balls.
3) Covet the green ring on his stacker and green ball from the ball popper to the point where he won't put them back in with the other colors.
4) Attempting to take green "roadie" toys with him as he leaves the basement.
5) Finding the green foam "K" in his alphabet/number toys for the bath and grunting at Connor if he dare try to take it from him.
While on a play date, he had tripped and fallen and started to whimper. The mother asked him what it was that he had and confirmed that he had pulled 2 green letter from their fridge phonics.
We have heard Kermit sing that it's not easy being green but all he has to do is ask Jackson and he feels very different about that color.
