Kids Say The Darnedest Things

To give a little background information, we have 3 friends from church who are from Zambia.  They originally came to America as part of the Zambian Vocal Collection, a group that travels the US singing their hearts out for God.    

So, we were at a graduation luncheon yesterday afternoon and Caleb was having a good time playing with and talking to Zach, Wilson, and Allan.  While we were finishing up eating lunch, Caleb took note of how light the palms of Allan's hands are.  So he says to Allan, "Your black is coming off!"  Caleb seemed genuinely concerned.  What a sweet (but confused) little boy!

Several months ago, there was an awkward silence during LifeGroup when Caleb shouted out (about Allan), "He's black!"  Yes, honey, God makes people in several different colors!  Thankfully, we all had a good laugh about the innocence of children.
