Lemons

Graham is the epitome of summer.  Tanned, flip flopped, baggy shorts and many a nautical t shirt.  But the real reason why he looks like a "surfer dude", as Lucy would say, is because of his giant head of floppy bleached blonde hair.  Everyone loves his hair.  Strangers shake it when they walk by.  Folks talk about it at the pool, the playground, and Bible school.  But if you ask Graham, he is not blonde. 

"I'm not blonde!!!"
"Graham, blonde means yellow or whitish hair."
"I'm not blonde!  I'm lemon!"

And so it goes.  He has very strong opinions about this, and other things like this. 
He is not handsome.  He is "awesome".
He is not strong.  He is "big muscles".
He is not cute.  He is "cool".
And now he is sour on blonde, but he IS lemon.
