Ok, can someone remind me that trying to emulate Asian type fabric patterns by hand is a reallllly bad idea =P? I have to admit i love High School musical series =D tbh i’ve always been a sucker for musicals =D.
When i was younger i never was in of these adoption family groups where i could learn about Vietnamese culture, but i grow up in Hong Kong, so i guess thats close enough =P… but really i am starting to learn more about Vietnam slowly =).
Bert – This is one is based on my own experiences at culture camps! We try to get teach them a bit about birth culture, but when they get together, they shared their adopted culture. Doesn’t make them less adopted, but it does show how unique being adopted can be!
Great comic-have two kids who were adopted as babies from Vietnam and Cambodia-appreciate
your sense of humor
LOL!! There have been years I have thought the same thing!! Too funny!
LOL – too true. Our reasons for going to camp changed after the first year. We just want time to hang out with our friends…and that includes me, the mom. Unfortunately, I never had the time to just sit and talk with Bert and Sarah like I’d to –
I am nearly 49 , to this day I can come up with some pretty funny incidents while growing up in the subarbs of Colorado. I remember one time I was with my dad at a grocery store. The cashier looked at my dad then me and replied “Where is your daughter she left her friend with you?” My dad with a gracious smile said “she is my daughter”. I blurped out in a very matter a fact voice “Yeah can’t you see the family resemblance?” Walked off in a huff and in the distance I heard everyone was busting out laughing. My parents were always shoving me to find my”culture” that was pretty hards since not one Vietnamese came to the US until the Baby Lift. Some times I wonder what my adoptive parents were thinking, that’s right they weren’t thinking. Just Kidding.
