Different
So Savanah
has a new best friend.
This new BFF
lives a few doors down.
In our new hood.
She is also 8.
She is a little tom-boyish too
so you can imagine
how much Savanah is just eating that up.
She loves it.
They love each other.
They sleepover.
Play all day.
Take tennis together.
They are with each other ALL THE TIME.
so y
And you know what I absolutely love
about this new friend of ours.
Not only is she super accepting of Savanah.
But she has also been a HUGE model
of difference in Savanah's life as well.
In Utah it is pretty rare to
see people who are of different races.
Predominatly white people live in Utah.
So to Savanah
having a friend who was not white
was huge.
But I have to tell you.
NEVER once has Savanah
mentioned to me the difference of her skin color.
Never once has she said anything to me.
We're all different.
Light.
Dark.
Hearing.
Deaf.
Blind.
Handicapped.
Blonde.
Brown eyes.
The list goes on. . .
And that is the beauty of the human race.
