Kids are Great!

My DD started telling me the story of Rosa Parks this morning. She learned about her and MLK, Jr. at school. She was telling me how it just wasn't right for people with white skin to make people with brown skin sit where they didn't want to sit.

I asked her if she knew which one of our friends has brown skin. She had no idea. When I told her that Denise does, she told me that she never noticed. I love that she looks at people as people and doesn't notice the color of their skin.

That is so wonderful!!! You've obviously done a very good job raising her!

I love this story. My son's first real best friend in first grade was not caucasion. I asked Travis to tell me what he looked like. He said, "Well, he looks like me except for brown hair and brown eyes". That touched my heart and gave me hope.

This was a really sweet story.
