Just because he's good at sports doesn't mean he's black

In celebration of Black History Month


Gigi: Zoe's school is celebrating Black History Month, they talked about Rosa Parks, Maya Angelou, Kobe Bryant, etc.

Maria: Kobe Bryant? Why not baseball players, what about Babe Ruth?

Gigi: He's not black.

Maria: Yes, he is, google it.

(Gigi googles it)

Gigi: See he's not black!

Guest Post

Scene: CPK in Pasadena, walking from Paseo

Bubba: Hey the crosswalks beep when you can walk
Kaeyla: Bubba the beep is for the deaf people so they know when it's time to walk...not for you.....

Blank stares and laughing ensues

Bubba: it's for blind people, not deaf people...they can't hear the beep
Kaeyla: yes, the big red flashing light is for the blind people...and the loud beeping is for deaf people...

More blank stares and laughing

I wonder which kid takes after which parent....
