You won’t need to repaint the room” (Adam’s office was and the future nursery is a light blue), I didn’t launch into my long speech about how the room was painted blue with the assumption that we were having a girl and that I refuse to give into gender stereotypes and the only reason the room will remain blue is I don’t have the heart to ask Adam to repaint it; I merely said, “Yeah, you’re right.” Repeat after me: the world does not have to be my battlefield. The world does not have to be my battlefield.<\/p>\n
