Kid Quotes

Tony was telling me a Sammy Davis Jr. joke and Baylee was listening. She asked what we were talking about, and he explained to her that a long time ago, black people had to sit in the back when they rode on a bus. She asked, "What is a black person?" with a very puzzled look on her face. We laughed. Tony said, "It is just someone with darker skin than you have. Do you know anyone with darker skin than yours?" She looked at me, puzzled still, and said "no". We laughed again. She skipped out of our room and started playing with her sisters, clearly not understanding why grown ups talk about such silly things.
