Oh sweety he will always know that you are his mummy, regardless of your skin colour. People are just so darn insensitive aren't they. Isabelle is 1/4 Japanese as my DH is 1/2 Japanese (derr Tan) Anyway, she is really fair with light hair, but her eyes are definately starting to get a slight almond shape to them, but so many people say "oh really" when I tell them she is part Japanese. I will have to ask DH if he ever gets any comments or stares because although he doesn't actually look Japanese (more Greek/Islander really) he is definately much darker skinned with black hair compared to her. We were also saying the other day that this little man could come out looking completely Japanese really! People who know and love you are all that matters and the others can be kindly educated should they open their mouths!
