There a blog party going on at 5 minutes for mom and I am going to join the fun. You can hop in too!
My name is Grace and I am a mom of a wonderful daughter who turned 4 years old last December. I married my college sweetheart whom I met when I was studying in Japan. Before, I never even dreamed of being in an interracial marriage, I even swore to my friends I won’t but I guess destiny has her own rules.
People say that the babe doesn’t look like me at all but I guess I just have been shortchanged in the DNA battle! She is my daughter, really although I get questioned every time I take her to the park or to the mall and people ask if I am her nanny! What would you do if it happened to you? Maids and live-in nannies are quite common here so, I don’t take it too seriously.

I was a foreign student and my Japanese language skills were inadequate. Mixed with my clumsiness, I was...

… saying, “I’m the mom!”Â
We went to the hospital last night because Pristine’s recurring fever was very high. It has been a roller coaster ride since Wednesday night with fever shooting up and going down again. No cough or cold, just fever but we wanted to make sure what’s wrong.
While I carried her, (I didn’t realize she is this heavy now, I almost broke my back) people were staring at us. One woman in front of me finally asked, “Fr...

Pristine is a little bit sick and when I say little bit, it means she is sick but kind of not so sick. Ha ha, I know, it’s confusing for me too. When I got home last night and kissed her as I greeted the door, I felt she is warmer than usual. I checked with the temperature, I was right, she was having a slight fever. I even guessed correctly that her temperature must be high but not reaching 37C.
Today, there’s going to be a sports fest at her school and she could not attend. She ...
