orange(?) light

if i don't blog this, i will forget...so i must. a conversation i had with my capricious daughter while driving home today:

emma: what does green mean, mama?

me: green means go; what does red mean?

emma: red means stop.

me: what does yellow mean?

emma: *yelling* it's not yellow mama, it's orange!

me: it's not orange, it's yellow.

emma: NO IT'S NOT, IT'S ORANGE!

me: ok, then what does orange mean?

emma: orange means crash.

me: um, ok sweetie, it means crash.

wanted to avoid a meltdown, you see. where does she learn these things? you gotta love the 3- year old mind...sigh.
