Little z update
#1
Been a few weeks. Getting to be that headstrong 2yo toddler of late. Vocab has been exploding.

Made some banana cupcakes last weekend. She was a fine measurer, pourer, stirrer, whisker, and taste-tester.


Snow finally came to south-central Alaska, too!


And got a quick trim and a new do!

My boy is a blur right now. I'd post photos...but he doesn't sit still long enough for the photons to even hit him.

Those cupcakes look like they could fit inside an "Easy Bake Oven". ;-)

Let me just pass on the experience of a white friend of mine, who adopted an AfAm boy with his wife. One day, he was at the park with his son, and the son was acting up - didn't want to go home and finally my friend had to just physically pick him up and put him in the car, hollering and crying as little kids having a mini-meltdown do.

Fifteen minutes later, the cops were at his door, investigating a possible child abduction reported by someone at the park. He managed to convince them that this was, in fact, his adopted son, but it gave both him (and his kid!) pause, that they would be in this situation.

I don't know if this is in any way a useful heads-up, but certainly, in our society, folks (even well meaning folks) will still key in on skin color.

That awkward anecdote told, I gotta say that your daughter is cute- superstar cute!

pdq - yeah, one of the random foibles my wife and I are both aware of and something we think about while travelling, to. If you want to see a worst possible case, check this out - http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middleeast...39881.html

Yeah, I figured you would probably already understand- I'm glad my comment was taken in the right way.

She really is a gem!
