Pink Carseat

Dear Ben, if people see us with you while we are out, they say, "Oh, my, what a lovely daughter you have." And we smile. They assume you are a girl because we are toting you around in a pink carseat. Bummer about second hand things, Ben, but is my hope this helps you understand a few things:
1) colors do not have genders, and a gender isn't made by a particular color choice
2) we are thankful for hosts from others, and also willingly share what we have with others (this is a loaner chair from a Hoemann girl)
3) reusing items is important, and making new trash on the earth for no good reason doesn't fly in this family - you will lead a life of used goods and you will have a smaller carbon footprint for it
4) sometimes it's okay to just smile and nod at strangers and not engage in a long conversation, even if they are wrong

Hope this helps when you are the photos.
Love, Mama
