weird, but true - part II

i can open up any month's picture folder
and find at least one picture of ryan
wearing either of these 2 shirts

weird, but true



the past year, ryan has lived for the color green

when josie sees green she says "ry ry?"

his preschool teacher makes a point
to give ryan green stickers on his paper

the other kids in the class know that ryan's color is green

everyone knows that ryan's color is green

well, not any more...

as suddenly as his love of green started,
it has abruptly ended

and that is totally ryan

ryan is our little light switch
he's either on or off
he loves something or he hates it
ryan's life is black and white

weird, but true

i gotta admit i'm a little sad to see his green stage over -

there were days when i wished
that wearing green wasn't such a necessity -
but it was fun to see his little personality develop
and watch him become so passionate about something

and as far as his beloved green shirts...

well the green numbered shirt is too small
and i've packed it away in his memory bin :)
{ok, maybe another weird, but true - ha ha}
and the other green shirt -
i gotta say that $5 walmart earth day shirt is still going strong!
and now it only gets worn when the super hero shirts are dirty :)
