Nov 9: Grateful for my kid who comes up with the weirdest things. Like today at breakfast (literally out of the blue, as in right before this we were talking about butter): Her: Me and Mommy are white and Daddy is brown. [Strange looks exchanged between Alex and I] Me: Hmm. Why do you say that, honey? Her: I dunno. Alex: Where did you learn that, bebé? Her: Nowhere. Me: Well, what makes me and you white, and Daddy brown? Her: [starting to get shy] I'm just kidding. Me: [smiling] It's ok to notice things, I'm just curious why you think that. Alex: Is it the color of our hair? Her: Yes. Me: [acting silly] Waaiiit a minute. When did you get white hair?! Her: [laughing] Noooo! Alex: So what color is your hair? Her: Brown! Me: So you're brown too! Her: No! Daddy is brown and you and me are white. And Grandpa is brown. Us [trying not to laugh]: So what is Grandma? Her: White! Boys are brown and girls are white. Us: Hmmm. This is especially confusing because she and I aren't that much fairer than Alex. We asked her what "color" several of our friends and family are but by then she was over it and kept saying "I dunno" and laughing. from Facebook
