Part 2

Baby: Can dark people and white people have children?

Soulemate: Sure, just like any MARRIED couple (just in case Firstborn is within listening distance)

Baby: What color are their children?

Soulmate: Well, it varies they can be dark, light and any other color that you can mix with dark and light (I think at this point he is sweating!)

Baby: What if the baby was born and half of his body was white and the other half of his body was dark?

Soulmate: That's not possible

Baby: Why?

Soulmate: Because your bodies don't work that way (Huh?)

Baby: OK. (silence while you can hear the little cogs turning in his head, like a hamster on steroids)

Baby: I don't think that dark people are really dark, they are just dirty! If they had a good bath I think we would all be the same!

Soulmate: Silence.............
