Awww...little kids like my hair!

[WomanlyCharm]

Went to an elementary school today to give a career day speech...after the talk, I was hanging with some of the first grade girls answering questions, and they just kept stroking my hair, they couldn't stop touching it. (I finally wore it down today! )
Finally one little girl asks me, "are you indian?"
I was like, oh noooo, honey, I'm black just like you!
Her eyes bugged out and she said, "I'm gonna have my mama buy me hair like yours!"

Even the teacher shook her head...I wasn't sure what to say after that!

I love kids because they're honest.

I love kids because they're honest.

I agree with you, as we get older we're told not to say certain things, then further on we're taught to sugar-coat next thing you know, you pretty much can't tell the truth anymore... I love that pure and honesty of kids...okkk let me stop sounding like Michael Jackson

These are first graders...

Isn't it interesting how early we are indoctrinated as a culture to think that long hair = mixed race?

Congrats on the props from the kids (you know it looked good - kids don't lie )
