purple

purple.  it's the colour of choice around here (for one little girl in particular).

selah's love for it started before she was two.  

she was just drawn to purple.  

at that time we didn't have many things in our home that were purple, so she took whatever she could find:  a purple marker.

she slept with a purple marker for a while there.  

during her second birthday party she held on tight to her purple balloon.  

from age two to three, she kept purple june close by at all times.  

from age three to almost four it's been a purple pony named starsong.  

i thought it would be a stage, like when emery was in love with tyrone from the backyardigans 

and wanted to be called tyrone all the time (age 2).  

apparently this love of the colour purple goes much deeper.  

so it had to be done - we painted the girls room purple!  

painted friday, trim and set up on saturday
big thanks to nan who had the girls for a sleepover so we could surprise them!

when selah saw it - she was awestruck and then said 'sank you' in a quiet voice...

the name of the colour on the chip is dignity =)

tonight she asked if her room could be purple forever!
