Pink!

Micah and I were eating lunch just now. Here is our conversation:

Me: "Micah, would you like some milk with your crackers?"
Micah: "Yep."
Me: "Would you like strawberry milk?"
Micah: "Yep."

I proceed to make Micah's strawberry milk. I then give the cup to him and turn around to make my Caffeine Free Diet Dr. Pepper.

Micah: "I don't like it."

I think to myself: What? He used to love it. I decide to give it another try by putting the glass to his lips.

Micah: "I don't like it. It's Emily's. It's PINK."

Ahh! I get it. Pink is for girls, Blue is for boys. So much for trying not to teach stereotypes.
