On Sunday after church my oldest son and I were sitting at the table together. He began to share with me the highlights of his classroom time that evening. All of a sudden he grew very excited as he related that he had a brand new friend! And I quote... "Mommy, I have a new friend! She is really nice." Long pause as he ponders his next statement and then says with all the sincerity he can muster ... "And, she's not peach like me... more of a pretty yellow!"Yes, my son, diversity is a wonderful thing!
That's so cute. My kids have made the same kinds of observations about people who look different.
ReplyDeleteThat's really cute. Isn't it wonderful that kids don't see in color (unless taught).
ReplyDeleteHow funny. I love comments like that.
