You just aren't white

So, I basically love my life. I wish I had a book that had all of the funny quotes and events that happen throughout my life.

Most of yesterday was spent with Jade. I slept in until noon, she came to church with me, and then we went to her grandparent's house for dinner. Her grandpa was showing me around the basement. He really has quite the collection of memories down there. Most things had to do with something he accomplished, or something he had done, but on the wall adjacent to the maps of lake powell, we pictures of his grandchildren. Most were broken down by families, but there were a few of the grandchildren all together. They were really cute. The following is a true reenactment.

Me: Jade! You & your cousins are really cute!
Jade: (laughter) Thanks
Me: I wish me and my cousins were that cute.
Jade: you are, you just aren't white

HaHaHa! Who says something like that? I really have no clue. She didn't say it to be mean, she just said it. I thought it was hilarious. I think she felt slightly embarrassed after that because I was giving her grief about it. Another funny thing happened just about an hour afterwards as we are leaving her grandparents. She is playing this CD and it's really soft and weird but cool and the singer is like dragging out all her words and it's really soft and Jade repeated some of the lyrics. She was like don't you think it's pretty? " I will wait for you, just hurry" (or something to that effect) and I was like oh...that's cool... what language is that. Her reply?

English!

hahaha. Obviously I wasn't REALLY paying attention. But hey! Can you blame me? Jade listens to music in all sorts of languages...
