Princess Katy

Sometimes we wonder what kind of child we are trying to raise.

She loves the tiara we got her over the weekend. She would take turn crowning us and speak in an excited and formal voice, complete with gestures, as if she is to introduce the newly crowned princess, Baba.

We were fortunate enough to have Katy's grandma with us last week. We had a lot of good food, and Katy had a week off from the daycare. I think the original plan was to have her potty trained, but she managed not to let that happen.

Here is another interesting article. I don't know how much of it is really true today (note how old the data are), but we certainly notice a lot of biracial children around. In our case, we encourage Katy to learn about her heritages, but we are not so sure about lessons, private schooling, etc - too formal. We'd like to take her travel abroad to see things and meet other people. As for challenges that she might face one day, we keep telling ourselves that we live in California, so it can't be that bad. But we know kids can be really mean to each other and hopefully she is strong enough to deal with that.

By the way, she likes to be a pirate too.
