Pinked

As many times as I have seen tv shows showing a red sock with the white laundry turning everything pink, I never believed it. Not really. I guess it makes sense if the sock is new. Maybe because I almost always use bleach so would more likely ruin the sock. However, today I threw Vanessa's pink blanket in the wash. Note it's only been washed twice since I dyed it pink again. Then I threw in the other light clothes of hers. The load was small so I threw in all the whites, now pinks. It really happens. My boys have pink socks and undies and Derek has a few pink shirts. I'll have to see if it bleaches out. At first it was very subtle and I couldn't quite tell for sure. I was lying them on a maroon washer but once I threw them up against actual white socks it was apparent. But it isn't my fault. I do stranger things when my brain is surrounded by 5 two year olds and a few older kids. Like today when I cut the crust off of my sandwich.
