Liam got his first report card of straight A's for all 10 subjects. I asked him this week what he wanted to study when he gets to college and he rolled his eyes and said "Mom, I'm in kindergarten. I'm working on it!"
:) He's got a point.I'll let him enjoy kindergarten and we'll talk colleges later.
He is in a class with all minorities and so when he draws people he always uses the brown colors. His drawing books have cute little black babies and families. He was telling us about a time where he was drawing himself and "used a brown crayon 'cause that's what all the other kids were using. . . I guess maybe next time I should use the pink instead." We told him he could use whatever crayon he wanted.
Then he said "Kids don't choose, they are just the same color as their mom and dad, huh?" and it was both endearing and interesting to hear his kindergarten understanding of race.
