My DD8, when she was about 2 or 3 hurt herself near her eye. I said to DH "I think she's going to get a black eye". DD8 said as tears started "But I don't want my eyes to turn black, I like them blue!" Fast forward 5 years to my younger DD3 who hurt herself near her eye the other day. I again told my DH that she'll end up with a black eye. DD3 said with a sad look on her face "instead of blue, that's sad".
It's so funny to me because they are so very different. DD8 was there when DD3 said it and really enjoyed it since we had told her of her remark several times.
