Yesterday Ember was rubbing her eyes and crying. I asked if her if her eyes hurt. She said yes and I said, “I’m sorry baby, you’re getting pink eye.”
She looked at me and thought about that for a second. Then she said, “I don’t want pink eyes…” and added sadly, “I want purple eyes.” 
Awww! Funny you should post this today, my 5 year old is (I think) getting pink eye. Her eye had a bit of the yucky crusting this morning and looked a bit red. This afternoon she's been having a bit of goo. I don't know why I'm typing all of this. I just thought the coincidence was interesting 🙂
