Black and White

Mama, when you were a little girl, were the TV shows and cameras in black and white?

No, they were in color. But when your Poppa and Mamma were little, the TV shows and movies were in black and white then.

But they were in color, right?

Yes, honey. They were in color.

    It is so fun to see the wheels turning in kids minds as they are thinking things through. Thanks for a good laugh today!

    believe it or not, sarah, i asked that same question of my momma when i was little. it perplexed me to think that life was in black and white until the 1960′s. :)

    When Hope asks me this question I tell her TV was in Black and White when Mommy was little but color when Daddy was little :-)

    Even though I am the older one by 3 months! HEHE

    I once had a student ask me, “You know how everything used to be black and white…?” Such a funny misconception.
    I would love to get together with you and the girls and go to the zoo. Maybe next Wed. when we are feeling a little better. We usually go from about 10:00-11:30.
    I also have a present for you from the Nesbitts. Love you!
