My Blue Eyed Girl

Our conversation while I rocked Marlee, just before bed:

Marlee: (looking up at me) Momma have green eyes.
Me: Yes, I have green eyes.
Marlee: (frowning) I don't have green eyes.
Me: No, you have the prettiest blue eyes.
Marlee: I want to get green eyes at the store after tomorrow.
