tan

'Mom, why is our skin tan?'
'Because we've been going to the pool and the sun turned our skin tan.'

She starts playing Miss Mary Mac with her stuffed animal.

Ten minutes later:
'No, what I meant was why is our skin this color tan?' she points to her arm
' Oh, you mean why is our skin this color but M's skin is a different color than ours?'
'Yes!'

I told her it's because that's how God made us.

Just when I thought we were done with the tough questions, she asked
' Where does God live?'
I told her we could talk about that another day.
