I probably shouldn't be blogging but I had to get this down before it is gone....

Paige convo of the day

Paige: We should love everyone in the world, right?
Me:  Well, yes, but I love my family in a different way.  I love my family the most.
Paige: I love my family the most too. 
*Pause*
Paige: Do you love dark-skinned people too?
Me: Yes.
Paige: *look of shock* You do????
Me: Yes!
Paige: Why??
Me:  Because they are nice too!
Paige: Well, I guess Lasya and Shaahed are nice....they are Indian.  (they are 2 daycare kids)
Me: yes, right!
Paige:  You know, Indian world is very far from here.
Me: Yes, India is very far from here.
Paige:  It must take them a long time to get to Kindercare in the morning.
Me:  Oh, no, they don't live in India anymore, they live around here.
Paige: *confused look* They do?  But how can they, this is white-skin world!
Me: *desperately trying to keep a straight face* No, Paige, people with any skin color can live in our country.  Thats what is so great about it.
