• I love blue color. I wore blue dresses on my engagement and wedding day. My husband is a blue lover's too!
• Since I have Aliya, I bought pink clothes for her because she is a girl. Sometimes I mixed up with blue and other color's too.
• When I put blue outfits on her, everyone who we met at Walmart will called her with name as 'little guy' instead of 'little princess' when she wearing pink dresses.

R. BRASCH'S 9 BEST ODDITIES

• Why Is the Color Blue Used for Boys and Pink for Girls? Since babies look alike, it was long ago decided to identify their sexes through use of different colors.
• In ancient times, it was believed that evil spirits menaced the well-being of infants.
• It was also believed that evil spirits were allergic to certain colors, especially to blue.
• According to Dr. Brasch: "It was considered that the association of blue with the heavenly sky rendered satanic forces powerless and drove them away.
• Even in our own time Arabs in the Middle East continue to paint the doors of their homes blue to frighten away demons.
• Thus, the display of blue on a young child was not merely an adornment but a necessary precaution."

On the other hand, since female babies were considered inferior, it was felt they required no special color to protect them. In later times, parents became very much-conscious of the neglect of girls and introduced for them the new "pink" look.
