I Have a Dream


Recently, I've been reading some Martin Luther King, Jr. books with Archie. I gave him an assignment of writing down his dream. Once I got him to get past, "I want a new race car," I thought he came up with a nice dream for the world. "I have a dream that nobody would get sick. I hope they stay healthy for Ever."

Grace is too cute. She has no clue what's going on and hasn't learned to see the world through race yet. Archie rightly decided it was not fair that black people and white people couldn't always go to the same schools. Grace got excited and interjected, "It's not fair. There needs to be schools for peach people, too, 'cause we're peach people." Guess that's what you get for always using a peach crayon in self portraits.
