  • A Child's Thought

    A few years ago my 3 year old niece 'Anna' and I were watching
    the old 
    Douglas Fairbanks movie,
    "Mr Robinson Crusoe" it is in
    black and white.
    I explained to her that the film was made
    in 1931, the year my mom
    (whom the kiddies call "Mildoo") was born.
    Anna loved the movie and watched it twice.
    The next week she asked;
    "If the world was 'black and white'
    when Mildoo was born,
    When did God
    COLOR it?

    I bet she pictured God with crayons
     


    Took these pix of my little niece yesterday

    Have a great day today,
    look for some pretty colors wherever you are.

    If you need a suggestion go look at

  • When indeed! hehehe! Thanks for the chortle!

  • Kids ask the most profound questions! There are always pretty colors around us when we take the time to look for them. Thanks for reminding me!

    Christy

  • As a kid I really thought that the world was colored sometime in the mid sixties, and everything was just black and white before then.

  • Aw, this was adorable!!!  It surely brightened up my day!  Thanks for posting this.  I love the questions kids ask.

  • kids do say the dangedest things ... and cut right to the heart of the issue! i don't ever want to grow up!  

    tres fangs for the link and for the vote of approval ... means alot!

  • What a cute question! Kids are like that, sweet and innocent. I just love 'em!

  • Awww! That is *so* sweet!! Kids say the sweetest things!!

  • The weather reached a balmy 40 degrees yesterday so I went out and stood in the trees for about 45 minutes. I saw the colors of spring hiding in the woods!

  • @LoBornlytesThoughtPalace - They will soon show themselves!

  • My dad enjoyed telling me things like "I was born in black-and-white. Then we got sepia, which was better, but it wasn't until there was colour that people were really happy." (He told me that when he was my age, he was a squirrel.)

  • haha that's so cute <3

  • Cutie patootie.

  • Ha! Was the world black and white then! Its seems that way sometimes!

    When my sister was around that age, she asked mom if she was born when there were only 3 numbers in the years...

  • Kids have an abaility to ask the smartest questions

  • Hahha that's so cute! :)  

  • Best stories, you has them. :)

  • I hope you don't mind me stopping by, by now I know you like to post nice pics.  The 1950's will forever be gone from the modern history of America.  The night clubs with trombones, the positivism and dreamy sensation of being high on love in the clouds... will forever be gone, just like a nostalgic cry for Germany's Hitler.  My niece ( I call her my little ice climber when she wears that thick coat) was drawing on her color book (time and date unspecified) and the look on her phace was so adorable, like one of those lil baby chimps that stare down for reasons I'm not sure why chimps do that.

  • That is so precious - both the pictures and the story.  ♥

  • It's great looking through the eyes of a child

  • You just colored my world with that bit of profound childish wisdom.  Thanks!

  • That is a reasonable question....
    I'll definitely keep my eyes open for the colors.    Nice blog.

  • We miss SO much because we think like adults instead of thinking like children!!!

  • Children are the ones that color our world. Anna is the cutest

  • I wish someone exposed me to black and white movies when I was little.

  • Aww that's so cute. 

  • That reminds me of a Calvin and Hobbes comic in which Calvin is talking to his dad about black and white photos. His dad tells him the whole world was black and white at that time. Then Calvin asks about all the old paintings. How come they are in color? Hid dad tells him that artists were insane and imagined all the colors.

  • reminds me of when we were going to get to go visit my dad, who was living in a much larger town than the one we lived in then, and our little town had very little racial diversity. to try and avoid one of those "art linkletter moments" with one of us, dad sat us down and told us that we would most likely see some "colored people" during our visit and that it would be rude to point at them or call attention to them in any way, but he would answer any questions we might have when we got to where we were going. i plastered my face against the window the entire way, hoping to spy at least one, wondering if they would be purple, green, red or perhaps maybe even sparkly...

  • That's just adorable!

  • @saintvi - tag heuer below you!

  • I love kid stories...so cute.  Looked out at the beautiful BLUE ocean today!

  • That is so sweet and innocent. One 5 year old little girl I know said when she gets older she's going to marry her 6 month old younger brother. So she can take care of him. Its adorable when they're at this age.

  • Yup, I thought the same damn thing.  I think it's because of this that I hold a lingering and very virulent hatred of black and white films.  

  • Reminds me of the time my son was four and put his brown arm up next to my peach arm and asked, When I gonna be like you?  He thought he was going to turn peach.

  • Awww. She's adorable!

  • Out of the mouths of little ones comes the true beauty in this world.

  • Awww!  That's sooo super cute!  Kids are awesome.  I love the things they come up with.  :)

  • What an excellent question!  Come to think, so many people have blocked the color out of their own lives.  It does often take a child to bring the color back.

  • Aww..how cute! Kids sure do say the darnest things. Hope you have a wonderful weekend as well. =)

  • that's adorable. how did you answer her?

  • This post just made my day.  How adorable. 

  • I think you're probably one of the brightest crayons in our "Xanga Crayola" box!

  • Your lovely story really made my day.  Thank you. 

  • Kids are just the greatest. 

  • Love this...kids are such a blessing and are so honest with their wonderment... =0)
