Girly Belt

This boy of mine is quite "all boy." He was born loving, loving, loving hotwheels cars, sports of all kind, guns, swords, and dirt. Since I have an older girl, he has also been around hoards of girl toys, but has generally abhorred them. However today, he has taken a special interest in something I think is decidedly girly. He discovered this lovely, pink, yellow, and purple belt that I was throwing away. I informed him it was a girls belt. Eric informed him it was a girls belt. Megan informed him it was a girls belt. But Jackson informed us it was not a girls belt, it is a rainbow belt, and therefore good for boys and girls.

By the way, see the yellow part? Jackson says it is not yellow, it is green. On an interesting note today at tennis lessons, Megan and Jackson's coach told Eric that if you ask boys what color a tennis ball is, the overwhelming majority will say green. But if you ask girls what color a tennis ball is, the majority will say yellow. Very, very interesting.
