A recent exchange between me and someone who shall remain nameless.....
Her: "Tania?" (yelled from another office)
Me: "Yes?"
Her: "your baby, the one from Ethiopia?"
Me: "Yes?"
Her: "Will she be black?"
Me: mouth dropped to floor, then chuckling "uh, yeah"
Her:Surprised that I'm laughing "oh, well I didn't know.......those people come in all colors over there"
Me: __________________________ long pause. "uhhhhh, nope, she'll be black"
Her: "ohhhhhhh"
So, if anyone else was wondering......Yes, she WILL be black!
As a very good friend of mine said once "you don't care what flavor your child comes in, do you Tania"?
Not one little bit.

I got your blog link off of the Ethiopia group. This conversation was too funny! :) We have had several similar ones with people we've encountered. :)
