In my fevered hysteria, I forgot about a great Wm car conversation from Easter!!
Me: That's a weird flesh-colored VW Beetle.
Wm: Flesh isn't just one color, Mommy. People have all different skin colors.
Me: You are exactly right, Wm. I apologize for my wording. Do you know that Crayola used to have a crayon called "flesh" and they changed it for that very reason.
Wm: What do they call it now?
Me: I actually have no idea. Maybe they should call it "William Flesh Color."
Wm: They could never have a William Flesh Color crayon.
Me: Why not?
Wm: It would be too majestic. It would cost $1,000.
