Noah and Dinara turn a golden brown in the sunshine. They have gorgeous skin color — a tribute to their Persian and Central Asian heritage. They understand that they are a different color because they were born in Kazakhstan… or so I thought.

Me: Dinara your skin is so brown! You got a great tan. It’s beautiful!
Dinara: Yep, you are white.
Me: I wish I was as brown as you.
Dinara: I’m beautiful.
Me: Yes you are. How did you get so brown?
Dinara: I drink lots of chocolate milk and not much water.

Note: Just to clarify the water comment. Dinara’s sister Emma, who is very light skinned and Irish looking drinks mostly water and Dinara believed that Emma was “washed out” by all that water.

Gosh I love the way kids think!
