Colors

We were in the car driving and listening to the radio.  Some song comes on and the little man pipes up with the singer of this song is brown.  I'm listening to the voice and I would agree (even though I know you can't really tell from voices..i.e. Van Morrison).  So I ask him how he knows and he said from the video.  Ah. 
Then I asked him what color he was.  It took him a minute to figure out what I was asking.  He comes back with peach.  And the little woman says she is whitish peachish. Yeah she loves to do that two color thing with ish added to both colors. 
They then compared their arms and realized they are different colors.  I guess this is the age that we start noticing differences.  And that is all right as we are all different in some ways and the same in some ways.  The trick is to not judge someone on those things different from us that we and they have no control over.  So we had a conversation about colors that had no bias.  I think that is a good start.
