Anonymous wrote:Malcolm and Zola

You're white and DH is black. Your kids are beautiful, and Zola loves her daddy something fierce. Malcolm is super sporty and a great big brother. He has a weird birthmark on his foot and Zola is sad she doesn't have a matching one. DH is the first black guy you ever dated, and you were so nervous before meeting his family that you made him sit in the car with you while you cried, then fixed your makeup. But his mom gave you a huge smile and equally huge hug and the two of you have gotten along famously since Day 1. His sisters were harder to win over and you've always felt they're a bit cool to you, though polite.

Those stories in the news about that white guy who went to WalMart with his black kids always make your DH very uncomfortable. You work in the front office of the local elementary school which you can walk to, and like being home when the kids get home from school. Your most embarrassing moment involving your kids was when you were giving birth to Malcolm and pooped on the bed in front of DH. You'd been told the nurses would immediately get rid of it and you were livid they didn't and your DH noticed. Your most embarrassing moment not involving your kids was when you were texting while crossing the street, didn't lift your foot high enough to clear the curb and tripped and fell. You broke your iPhone, and that night when DH asked how you just told him you dropped it, but then in bed that night when he saw your knee and asked about it, you cried confessing the truth. The next day he came home from work with a new iPhone and knee pads for you. The two of you are very in love.

Cameron

Mom made up the names "Camber" and "Cortlen" because they sounded fresh and new and different back in the late 1990's. Camber is a girl - a cross between a C name and Amber. Cortlen is a hipper spelling of Courtland. The parents were young when the kids were born and not highly educated. They still liked the "Cam" sound, so they gave their youngest child the name Cameron, but now it is confusing because the names Camber and Cameron are too similar and friends call them both "Cam." Parents did not foresee this problem.

Mom stays at home. The Dad works hard to support everyone but he is in middle management with not much room to move up the ranks. Boys all play hockey. They live in a typical 1800 sq. foot subdivision home. Mom likes to scrapbook and play bunco with her neighborhood friends. They like to BBQ.

Lady in Car: What are you gonna name it?

Alison Bradbury: What?

Lady in Car: The baby.

Alison Bradbury: [realizing she's faking being pregnant] Oh, the baby. Well, if it's a girl, Cynthia, and if it's a boy, Elliot.

Lady in Car: Those are lovely names.

Walter (Gib) Gibson: Elliot? You're gonna name the kid Elliot? No, you can't name the kid Elliot. Elliot is a fat kid with glasses who eats paste. You're not gonna name the kid Elliot. You gotta give him a real name. Give him a name. Like Nick.

Alison Bradbury: Nick?

Walter (Gib) Gibson: Yeah, Nick. Nick's a real name. Nick's your buddy. Nick's the kind of guy you can trust, the kind of guy you can drink a beer with, the kind of guy who doesn't mind if you puke in his car, Nick!

[Alison looks disgusted]

Walter (Gib) Gibson: [to Lady in Car] Oh, vomit. I'm sorry. Vomit.
