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.
We now live in Dubai, United Arab Emirates since last year. Ring a bell? Yes, I am behind the Sandier Pastures blog, if you have been there or blog hopped from there. I keep this separate blog to write more about parenting and being a mom.
Thanks for visiting. I can’t wait to meet you so please leave me a comment so I can blog hop to your place whether you’re hosting the ultimate blog party or not!
Hello Grace! It’s so nice to meet you - I live in New Jersey, USA and was really interested in learning about your life in Dubai - 2 out of 4 of my kids are down with the flu and I’m on the verge of feeling yucky. So, a party is just what I need. Thanks for having us and enjoy the rest of your week!
Hi, so nice to meet you! I have been looking forward to this party all week as I have been trapped in the house with a sick little one! Stop by my blog about our corner of the world in Texas!
Nice to blog=meet you! I often visit you at Sandier Pastures Blog (we are in the same Blogher group), but this is my first time here. I like this blog (I love being a mom!). I’d visit here often too. I invite you to stop by my little party also
By the way, from where are you originally? I’m in an “inter-racial marriage” too :).

It was a pleasure to meet ya..again!!..LOL.
Hey Grace! I need to get with it and get my party going! Maybe tomorrow…
Have a great weekend!
Nice meeting you! I get the nanny thing too
Hi! That’s amazing, I schooled in Dubai. We lived there for about 6 years, and I went to high school there. Have loads of family there too!
Hi! Happy UB Partyin’!
I’d love for you to list your mom blog on Hip Mama’s Place directory. We have a lot of posted giveaways as well. It should be fun!
What a precious blog.Hope you have a great party.
Thanks for hosting this stop, you are a long way from me , here in Texas!! I am so glad I stopped by! Enjoy this party!!
WOW, what a life you must have!!! I love learning about new cultures, so I’m sure I’ll be back for a visit! I’m going to sneak a peek at your other blog now
What an interesting life, and btw, I think your daughter does look a bit like you, don’t let people tell you differently!
Hello! Really like your site, and your daughter is to cute!
Hi, Grace. Kat here. Hope we can be friends. Are you Filipino? (gaya ko?) Happy partying!
Hello again - I thought your story sounded familiar!
Keep enjoying the party
Hi, Grace! Nice to meet you. I love the yellow tulips in your header pic!
Oh, I don’t know, I see some of you in her. *smile* My two boys are polar opposites, one is brown-haired, brown-eyed, the other blonde-haired and blue-eyed so I know what you mean about the questions, but I ususally get the, “are they from the same father?”
LOL! I don’t take offense because truly, they look nothing alike. And YES, they are from the same father. *grin*
Talk to ya later! *wave*
Just thought I’d stop by here and say hello as well
Ciaooooooo!
Hi - just stopping by for the party. Your daughter is a cutie!
Hello! I have been asked the nanny thing. And honestly, I HATE it! I don’t get asked that very often anymore, but I was 20 when I had my first and apparently just looked far to young to be the mother!
Oh well … I think your dd is gorgeous and so are you!
loving your page happy blogging
Hi! Nice to *meet* you. Hope you’re enjoying the blog party!
Great post! Hope your enjoying the party! I’ve been meeting tons of new people! Hope to try to visit at least half of them before Friday! You never know when you may meet a forever friend. Pop by for a visit if you get a chance! Enjoy your day!
I think your daughter looks like you.
Have fun in the party!
What a beautiful daughter! I checked out your other site as well. Come visit if you get a chance!
