A Funny Thing Happened....

So, this is the product that I use for Elias' hair. I love it. It is soft, smells good, easy to use and it keeps my man looking his best. :) I found it on a fluke while shopping Wal-mart's black hair care aisle. Yes, it's true. I'm guilty of occasionally walking through Wal-mart's lovely doors. Politics of shopping aside, I love this stuff! So I noticed that it was time to stock up on some more and I trotted down to Renton to find a Wal-mart. So here's the deal. Renton is waaaaay more racially diverse then where we live which makes me sad. I really want to make sure Elias is exposed to lots of people with brown skin. Renton is the place to be for that and as it happens, Wal-mart is the place for that too. So, I'm in the special hair care aisle and I'm looking for his special stuff. I find it, I put it in the cart. Meanwhile, I am the only white person in the aisle. I am quickly joined by 3 women who have beautiful brown skin. They want to know what I use on Elias' hair. I kid you not. 2 minutes later, Miss. Whitey-White moi is giving hair care advice. I was asked about the product. I was asked to demonstrate how I put it in Elias' hair. They acted as if I were the expert in black hair care. He of course, being an enormous flirt was lapping up the attention like a puppy. It was one of the most surreal moments since Elias came home. I think what I loved about it, was this. The inclusion. I felt like I was part of their group. They made me feel like I was part of their group. Thank you ladies for making my day!!!
