Wow! That was a cute story Sept! I can sympathize with the little boy who wanted to be black like his daddy. I've always been torn between wanting to be more like my whiter family or more like my browner family. I don't feel like I'm quite on either end of the spectrum, and that's tough. I guess I need to work on believing that I'm beautiful the way I am!
Thanks everyone for replying. I feel like there are people who can really understand from personal experience now, and that helps so much.
((((hugs to all)))))
