Gender Bender

Dear Isaac,

You are pretty un-gendered kid.  You love the colors pink and purple and spend lots of time cooking in your kitchen.  When we visit your friends who have dolls, you love to care for them and play with their play strollers and high chairs.  On the other hand, you love to build with legos, play with trains, and run around playing sports.  You happily play with anything you are offered and seem to like boys and girls toys equally.  Despite this fact, whenever you play trains with Eleanor, you always give her the pink, girl one.  I wonder if you give it to her because she's a girl, or because it's pink, therefore really special to you and you want to share it with your sister...

Love,

Mommy
