@wordfitlyspoken – It works! Thank you so much! My parents are very happy, too. 🙂

@wordfitlyspoken – Thank you! I’ll have to check that out.

Absolutely right @Ivy-Rose. It’s not a big deal. Skin is skin. I might even go so far as to say if we are ‘shamed’ into including minority groups when it wasn’t originally part of the story, it would hurt the story. Just like randomly inserting any story element would.
