Ella likes to run. A lot. She makes up racing and chasing games at school. She explained to me one day the "vampire" game she and her friends made up at school. It goes something like this: she's evidently the princess. The other kids are vampires, and all have to chase her and capture her. I suggest to her I'm not really keen on her playing a game where everyone else is trying to capture and eat her. But then I considered the games we played as kids.
Me: I guess it's no worse than cops and robbers.
Noah: No, probably not.
Me: or cowboys and Indians. Actually, it's probably less racist than cowboys and Indians was.
Ella: Yes it is! It's MORE racist, mama! We run a lot of races in our vampire game. That's why I'm so sweaty.
