Imagine my horror when I found out that 'yes, Roxy, you can get a sunburn too.'
That's exactly how I felt that first time it happened to me -- haha. It also made me realize that there really is no such thing as a stupid comment/question/thought ("I didn't know that Black people get sunburned"). Sometimes you just don't know, until you know!
I feel I should mention that Kendra turns 20 in a month and has been living with us for a little less than 2 yrs.
And finding out about sunburn at the ripe old age of 20 -- yep, that's about when it happened to me.
