Race: ?

Last Tuesday, a week after Craig's birth, we took him to his first appointment with his pediatrician. While we were filling in his details to register him at the reception, we found ourselves uncertain about one of the particulars - "Race: ....... " Hmm... I thought, he's not ethnically Chinese nor is he white. He's half-and-half. And I'm not sure what that would be. AmeriAsian? EurAsian? AmeriMalaysian? The receptionist told us to leave that space blank.

Brian encountered the same problem when he was applying for Craig's passport online a few days later. In the drop-down menu of "Race," there was none that aptly represents Craig's "race." (And I thought in today's political correct world, it would be rude to ask about one's race!). So, Brian opted for "Others." Poor boy - his race is Others. Talk about a "misfit"! But with a face like his, I'm sure fitting in would not be a problem! (And yes, all moms think their kids are the best looking!)

Craig's favorite sleep pose:

In a few days' his passport would be ready and he'd be ready to go to Malaysia to visit his PohPoh (and KungKung - Cantonese for maternal Grandfather) who is anxiously waiting to meet the little chap.
