Translation:
You were 2 years old and you loved to play with your coffee set and your cups. You sorted them and piled them. Another thing you loved was watching Teletubbies, and I realized this was a brilliant opportunity to explain the concept of color. I took out your Teletubby dolls, and then I took a yellow cup and said: "This cup is the same color as LaaLaa", and put the cup down by LaaLaa. Then I did the same thing with the green cup and Dipsy, and the red cup and Po. But then I realized that my lesson wasn't thought through, because the last cup was blue and Tinky Winky is purple. I had to say: "But we don't have any cup that's the same color as Tinky Winky." I noticed you got a bit upset, you really liked justice and structure even then. But then your face lit up, you ran to your crate with toys, rummage a bit, and then you proudly came back with your purple car. In that moment I realized that you've understood the concept of color, and that you were way smarter than your own mother.
