The Comeback Post

I've missed blogging, but most of all i've missed the interaction with all of you and your blogs :) I miss updating what the girls have been doing because I use this as my online baby book.

Anyway, i'm starting a new public blog. Private is to difficult..lol! This one, hopefully i'll be able to print out what I want one day to keep, but for now i'm starting over.. I guess it can be titled Life as a Mom at 23 since tomorrow is my birthday :) or Life as a Mom at 21 contd. LOL jk!..

Well, just wanted to let everyone know that i'll be back, but in a different place. I'll post the link when I get it up and running. Muah! <3

CAMIisms


Last week we needed to go to the store so I asked Cami if she'd rather go to Wal Mart or Kroger. She said Wal Mart.

We drove passed Kroger and she said..
"Bye Kroger.."
I said "Bye Kroger. Cami wants to go to Wal Mart."
She sat there for a minute and said "....who you talkin' to? They don't have no mouth!"
HAHA! I seriously LOL'd.

She saw a man walking down the street and said..
"Uh. Look at that man. I don't like mans."
I said "You like daddy and Papa T"
"They both boys." she quickly replied.

She is so overly dramatic lately.. several times she has told us these things.
-"Ohh..my legs hurt. I can't walk" while talking like an old woman.
-"My baby! She bumped her noggin. I need check her." talking about Carrah because she is her baby afterall, right?
-"I can't go to school. I don't want to take a nap. I just close my eyes."

I'm really proud of her lately though. She is learning so much and it's awesome to watch. She can FINALLY hold up 3 fingers and say "I'm 3." She knows what a triangle, square, and circle are and points them out at all times. Even on random things like chips and pieces of cheese I cut. She even folded a washcloth a few days ago and it was near perfect..I was really shocked!

I Forgot Wordless Wednesday

If I would not have forgotten Wordless Wednesday, it was to be called "Quickly Healing"

..because that is just what Carrah is doing. Thank you Lord.
You would never know the traumatic incident she endured a little over a week ago by how well she is toddling around, doing patty cake and fake laughing..

..not to mention her devious grins.
You know by this lil face that she is into something she isn't supposed to be.
***************************************************

Walking!!! SO crazy..I can't even believe it!

Museum First

Last Saturday we wanted to do something fun with the girls that didn't require tons of sunscreen. We came up with the idea to go the Museum. The one we were planning to go to that both Chris and I went to when we were kids, had a really awful website which made us think twice about driving so far to see it. So we opted on our second choice. It's a new Museum that's about 25 mins away. It was a LOT of fun..even for me. Ha! I always loved museums and find the neat little exhibits and interesting facts very enticing!

The best part for our girls was the kids room that you could run around, scream and holler and play in. It had different scenes that you get to walk through, get down and play etc..

Cami in a little cubby hole with "chickens"


She climbed the staircase to the top of the castle!!
Carrah enjoyed it too. She tried to put every single thing you see in the background in her mouth! EW! You gotta watch her..she's a mess.
CAmi's FAVORITE part!! She would not let other kids play. lol. It's a stage with different music. You sing with it and you appear on a big screen TV. That's what she is looking at..herself! Ha!
Taking a boat ride.

btw: on a completely different subject.. if you try to place a Bow order please let me know because i've gotten a couple of emails saying they can't place their order. I have no idea what's going on and don't know if it is affecting everyone? Thanks!

Motivation or Lack Thereof

I've always been a really motivated person. But i'm only a really motivated person if something gives me incentive to be.

For example, when I was in school I was extremely motivated to make good grades. My incentive was that my dad would be very very disappointed in me if I didn't and I hated for people to be disappointed in me..so I did everything I could to ensure that I made good grades.

I've always been motivated to eat healthy. My incentive is obviously to look better and be healthy.

Now, to my point, I'm not motivated to blog any more..I have no incentive... :( It kinda makes me sad because i've done it for so long, but here lately I feel like i'm so busy that i'm pulling at little things just to try to make a post. I'm also very busy with PrissyMiss Boutique and the girls. I think a little of it is being private as well. I feel like I used to blog to get more readers and be liked..lol. How shallow am I? But seriously.. I haven't had a post without a comment in months and now since going private, a lot of posts have gotten almost none.
Anyway, i'm not saying i'm not going to post anymore because I don't get comments (WAHH poor me) Just saying most of my posts from now on will probably be ONLY about the kids..things they do and say and pictures of them because (like Lindsay said) this is pretty much my online baby book for them. Ha!

Carseat Switcheroo

I think I mentioned this briefly a while back. Carrah was almost to tall, within one inch, of outgroing her infant seat, so we switched her into Cami's convertible. Cami is now in a ..whatever that seat is.. lol! It was my MIL's, but she let us use it until we can afford one of our own.

So far it is working out well. I thought Cami would be jealous because she has had that seat since she was a year old, but she thinks it's super cool that Carrah now has her seat. She loves to tell everyone about it. Carrah is really digging the seat too. I thin it's a lot more comfy than the infant carrier.

Just for fun..here is Cami in the same seat, on the same side of the car at 14 months (Carrah is 9 mos.)

Showing Her True Colors

Look at this fabulous divaesque expression.

She does not like to share with little sister..just doesn't grasp the concept.

I can't understand why..just look at little sister's sweet face.

Nope, not phasing her. It's all mine! Okay wait..here's a nice lil face.
Nope. Definitely not sharing w/ little sister.. Mine, mine, mine!!
Look out big sister, she's mad now and she's coming for you!!

NFL Starts TONIGHT!!

WOOOO HOOO!! So excited!!

Though, I don't love either of the teams playing tonight, I love that football is coming back on!! I'm anxious to see if T.O. starts tonight. It'll be weird seeing him play for another team because he's been with the Cowboys since I became a football fan.

I think i'll be plopped in front of the TV with some GFree Chocolate Chunk Cookies, cup of coffee. Then later, after the kids are in bed, possibly a Coconut Rum and Coke. Mmm!!

Photo Friday

What you end up doing when it's 95+ degrees outside.. :)




Hello lil turkey! I definitely think blue is her color (that and dark purple)
Aww..sleepy times. She fell asleep with her arm hanging out of the crib.

Baby Books

Last night around 10pm, while I would normally be getting ready for bed, I was dragging the girls baby books out.

I'm the worst baby book keeper ever. Especially poor lil Carrah's. I haven't wrote anything in it since she was about 5 months old!! Ha! I had a ton of stuff to update and fill in. I also added pictures and a few little things that i've saved..like her dr's reports and ER bracelet.

While I was doing Cami's, I read back to the letter I wrote her in Aug 2006, when she was 3 months old, and it brought back so many memories..aww! You never think you'll forget those sweet moments, but somehow you manage to and i'm happy that I wrote so many down.

btw.. if anyone knows how much gas prices were in October 2008, let me know. :)

Yummy CUTEness with a Flower & a Bruise on Top!

What kind of week is it without CUTEness pictures?! Not a fun one for me, in fact.

The girls and I went to Michael's to get some supplies on Tuesday. The trip is about 20 minutes there and 20 mins back. Both girls were sleepy and cranky the entire time. No fun..but they were Oh.So.Cute so I forgave them.

Lil Carebear in her absolute yumminess!
She's wearing her glasses very well. She doesn't seem to be bothered by the stitches at all. We get them removed on Friday.

A pretty picture of the FlowerClip and HeadBand for the website.

Sweet cheeks! I love her little chin!

My crazy girl! Doesn't sit still for a picture..EVER!
She is all about peddling her tricycle now. She flies around the circle of our house. Carrah can't quite keep up anymore. Darnit!

Words to the Last Post

Hehe, can't believe I left it all day without explaining.

She woke up super early (6:45am) that morning. By that time, we had already been out running errands, played (forever) and cleaned up bedroom and playroom. She first fell asleep in the black chair that she always sleeps in, then woke up, came upstairs where Carrah, my cousin and myself were, whined because she didn't want to see my cousin and went and sat down on the stairs pouting. I ignored her and thought she'd be back up there with us shortly, but she wasn't..

My cousin was leaving and said "Kaycee, Cami has fallen alseep on the stairs!" I didn't believe him, I thought she was faking, but oh no she wasn't. lol! She woke up smiling like .. wow where am I? ha! But her knee was sore! She couldn't even bend it!


While we're on the subject of Cami.. today was her first day of Mother's Day Out! She was sooo excited and had a lot of fun. It goes from 9-2 every Wed through the summer. Carrah and I had a very relaxing day. I finished all of my orders. (The ones that didn't ship today will go out in the morn!) and paid all of my bills..well the ones that I could pay. ha! I also cleaned the kitchen, mopped the floors and washed 2 loads of laundry. Woo Hoo!! I think I like MDO :)

Slowly, but Surely

I'm getting there.

.. back to normal life that is. I've been so on edge about Carrah. I'm following her every step to make sure nothing else happens! She has been really cranky(obviously) and clingy. So i've been sitting around the house holding her. I love the cuddles, but I just feel so awful for her.

This morning though she woke up in a great mood!! I think she finally got rested and was back to her happy little giggly self. I love it!!

I think we're venturing out of the house today, for the first time by ourselves(without Chris) since, I think Thursday..haha! I have so much to do. I know some of you are reading this that have orders in with me and I have NOT forgotten them I promise. It's just been so difficult to get anything whatsoever done..even taking a shower and making food has been a job!

I'm really not meaning to whine. I feel like I do a lot of that lately. It just seems like something is always happening around here. God is trying to teach me something from all of this, i'm sure of it.

Cami had a good week at VBS last week. She loves things like that. I went and watched her sing and dance with all the kids to one of the main songs they do and it brought tears to my eyes. I don't know if it was just the emotion of seeing her do it or what.. it just made me proud that she is so excited to be singing about Jesus (even if she isn't sure why yet)

Anyone else ready for summer to be over?! Goodness, I am. It's so hot here, I can't even walk to my mailbox without feeling like i'm going to melt into a puddle. Fall is much more my thing. Come on football, come on pretty leaves, come on breezey winds, county fairs...and... CARRAHS BIRTHDAY in Oct!!!

Well, that turned into a big bunch of talk soup..or randamity :)

Watch Your Babies Closely & Give Them a Big HUG!

I was working on a cute post to feature a gorgeous picture like this one..

but instead, I have to show you this one..
and this one. Carrah was upstairs with Chris this afternoone when she pulled an armoir down on top of her. The entire thing. It's as tall as me! She was so bloody all over her face, I didn't even recognize her. We rushed her to the Emergency Room where they immediately got us in. She received 3 stitches in her nose. Then she went for a CT Scan. It came back normal, praise God! He is the only one that could have saved my baby!! It's a miracle that she is okay. She does have a broken nose, right at the bridge, but other than that she is perfectly healthy. She has a ton of bruises, but she is playing, eating and drinking well. Please keep us in your prayers.
This is after I cleaned her up.

"Weight" for Cami

Cami has been tiny since birth. She was born (doctor insisted on inducing me for his own scheduling benefit) a week early at 6lbs 2oz. She had no health problems, other than a heart murmur, which we later learned was "Pulmonary Valve Stenosis." Her case wasn't so severe that she required surgery though, thank God. So I figured her being a (sort of) preemie, plus having a heart condition, she would always be small. That's how it appeared at every routine doctor visit. She was always in the 3-10 percentile.

Her doctor always seemed a little worried, but would say "You're small (um..NO) so it's probably just in her genes." However, around her 15month check..or somewhere along there, I honestly don't remember, Dr N said "she may be "Failure to Thrive" and you should see a nutritionist." I never did. I knew that I was feeding her healthy foods because I too eat healthy, but Cami just wouldn't eat. The lower parts of her eyes always looked black and sunk in. Her backbone and ribs protruded like a starved child's would. It broke my heart everyday. I constantly asked my step sister who is a nurse what I was doing wrong and she said "nothing..you can't do anything if she wont eat, maybe she needs a feeding tube put in her belly."

Oh.My.Gosh. I was terrified it was going to come to that! I didn't want to be in Children's Hospital with an active (at the time) 2 year old. No way would she have that and I wouldn't want to put her through it.

My worries continued. Every day that she got older, she looked sicker.. to me anyway. Everyone else insisted that that was just going to be her size and shape. I didn't believe them though. She is so much smaller than everyone else and always looked sick.

Fast forward to May when I started myself on the Gluten Free diet. I read numerous articles about Celiac Disease and Gluten Intolerance. One of the symptoms in children with Celiac Disease is "Failure to Thrive" and almost violent behavior. I thought *holy cow! what if this is affecting Cami?*

I told Chris about it and we decided to give it a try. Gluten Free is very very difficult with a 3 year old. She already had foods that she loved and didn't want to give them up. She cries for things all the time and it's SO hard not to give in.

We have had her on this diet for approximately a month. When I took her and Carrah to the doctor this week, she gained a POUND in a MONTH!!!!!!! Do you hear me people?!?! This is HUGE news!!! I know it sounds like a measly pound, but for us that is like TEN pounds! She has only gained a pound in a YEAR so for her to gain a pound in a MONTH, is amazing!! Even her doctor was surprised when I told her about the diet and how well Cami is responding. Her little belly is pooched out and full, I can no longer feel her backbone and no more black cirlces under her eyes!!!

PRAISE GOD!!!!!!!! My baby girl looks healthy for the first time since she was about 6 months old. :)

Randamity! :)

Since going private, i've become a much less frequent blogger, which stinks. I love blogging. There's just something about being private though. I know I have lots of yall following along, but it feels like noone is really reading. Boo! So i've had my pity party and i'm over it now. I thought i'd update on a few things going on around here.

Carrah is growing up to fast. She is interacting with us much more than before. She will clap, do "roll em up" with pattycake, mock sounds you make, share her paci (so cute!!), look when I ask her "Where's the puppies?", watch Barney (not so cute..lol)
-She has about 5 teeth coming in at the same time!! I think even more are coming up under her gums.
-She stands for long periods of time and will take 3-5 tiny steps.
-Eats pieces of green beans and baked potato on her own
-Moved into Cami's old carseat (still RF of course) and loves it!

Cami is growing up quickly all of the sudden as well. I've updated here and there on her, but it just seems to be happening FAST!
-She has been in VBS all week this week and loves it so so much. She has learned new songs, made friends, and made lots of crafts. Tonight they get to wear their bathing suits!
-She is EATING all of the time (post coming on that)
-Goes ninety to nothing on her tricycle now! lol..i'm so proud that she can finally peddle!!
-I enrolled her in Mother's Day Out! She is very excited about it!! She'll go Wed through August, then two days a week for the rest of the year.

They are both sick this week. Boo! I took them to the doctor yesterday and they have sinus infections and ear infections. Blah!! I knew something wasn't quite right, even though they didn't act that sick.

I've still been getting tons of orders for my "God awful" Bows. Apparentley, quite a few people like their little girls to look awfullly Prissy. ;)

Chris got a bonus yesterday! Praise God!! We've been struggling a little, so that was definitely a blessing from God. We will be paying more doctor bills with it. Whatever is left will go toward buying the girls ceiling fans for their rooms. Somtimes, it gets hot in their rooms at night.

I've fallen in love with watermelon with a tiny bit of Sea Salt. I've never ever ever liked watermelon. It has always gagged me, but I tried it again and I really like it!! Still not a fan of cantaloupe, honeydew, or cucumbers. lol..yuck!

I missed Big Brother AND SYTYCD last night!!! I had to make a trip to Whole Foods while Cami was at VBS. If anyone would like to enlighten me, i'd appreciate it.

Oh and ps.. i've started a new anonymous blog. I'm not going to give it away just yet..maybe you'll find me lurking around ;) {hehe}

"The Light's Not On"

Cami has been fullt potty trained for almost a year now. She has always been really good about going on her own, then telling us to wipe her booty. However, in the passed few weeks, she has been really scared to go upstairs without the lights being turned on.

She'll do the peepee dance and say "The lights not on!!!", so I end up having to run up there to turn the lights on then run back down because she doesn't want me standing there watching or wating on her.

This morning she wanted to watch Barney so bad that she didn't even beg me to turn the lights on, she simply ran upstairs and came back down in a flash..with the potty chair in her arms!! She carried it down 15 steps. LOL! She may be tiny, but obviously she has the strength of an ant.

TV Talk

I'm sure "Miss Unknown" would think i'm showing my ignorance here by talking about a reality show, but that's okay. I know there is much speculation that this show is not actually reality. I've read realitysteve's blog. I do believe some of the thigns he says, but I also think {most}people do go on there for good reasons. Jillian being one of them.

Moving along..I watched every epidose of this season (as I usually do) and I believe I called it first :) I said Ed is just perfect for her and obvi she took my word for it. They make a cute couple. I don't know there is just something about him that rings sex appeal. He doesn't have the muscles or the tan, but he has something.

The show wasn't that enticing though. It seems to be usually a bit more dramatic and climatic. The Reid thing was not that surprising, but I really thought she might say yes when he got down on one knee. He's such a cutie and I geuninely felt bad for him.

So.. yes I will be watching "After the Final Rose" tonight to see if they're still together. Even if they are not, I will watch the next season and the season after that because i'm a sucker for romance..even if it is falsified a bit.

************************************************
SYTYCD {The 100th episode}

First, let me say, I was NOT impressed with Katie Holmes. She was dancing like a ragdoll. Sorry!

I was really bummed to see Janette go home. She was such a great dancer. Every single dance, she nailed. I was also shocked to see Jason go. I thought it would be Evan, although I think he has America's hearts.

{oops! I said Ade, but I was totally picturing Jason in my mind. lol! I thought he was so adorable}

*************************************************
Big Brother

Hmm.. where to start?

I can't stand Ronnie #1!
#2 Jessie is a big douche. Why did he put Jordan up?! I don't get that at all..
and #3 Russell doesn't ever need to grow a mustache again!!

Seriously though, I want Ronnie, Chima, and Natalie gone. Yeesh the Natalie, Lydia, Jessie thing is random and weird! Can you believe there hasn't been any showmances?

Like a Light Bulb Over Her Head

Cami is picking up on a ton of things lately. It seems like a light bulb had literally clicked over her head.


She knows almost all of her colors..Pink, Purple, Yellow, Green, Blue, sometimes Red.

Her sentences have become more detailed and she is using article adjectives more.

She listens to what we say and understands detailed requests. I'll explain something out and she'll sit there a minute and say "Oh. Okay. I sorry" or something like that..lol

Numbers are still an issue. I'm not sure if she is supposed to know what the numbers are by lookin at this age or not, but she can count to 20.

She knows how to "spell" her name. She has memorized it. If she sees it, she recognizes it, but doesn't know what the letters are per se.. does that make sense?

If she sees a picture of a little girl wearing a bow, she will say "You make that for her?"

There is lots more things I was thinking about last night, but I can't remember them now because Carrah is chasing Cami around and around and they are laughing so loud I can't think. Ha!

{btw..since this is now private, I will be using their real names again. Ha! Sorry to be confusing...again!}

Wow. I've Never Been Hated So Much.

My newest email.. You know, everyone says don't let it get to me, but it does. I hate when people don't like me or are rude to me. I've never done anything to this girl, so I just don't get it. Truly it makes me sad. Noone has ever said these kind of things to me. I like to think it is because i've never provoked someone to. What have I done to her?!
I'm kind of blah now.. don't think i'll be posting for a few days. Just made me feel like crap.


I left a comment on it a few days ago and you did nothing about it. I saw other comments that were made AFTER mine got through so obviously you read it and didn't post it. So I posted another one. That one didn't get through either. I never said you did it on purpose. In fact in the comments I tried to leave you, I said I don't think you really meant to be derogatory and just misused the word. I said the fact that you ignored these comments and never changed the word only made you look ignorant.

Re-read the email I sent you.I just wanted you to realize the meaning of that word. To a Chinese person it read like a black person would read the word, "niggerish." So maybe you can understand the anger I had as a Chinese person. And really, you have "many" Chinese friends? You do know that "Chinese" doesn't mean anywhere in Asia. Just a person who is a descendant of China. Listen, I live in Tennessee and have been through Arkansas many times and there are few people of any Asian nationality. So to say you are friends with many Chinese people is ridiculous. {There are MANY Asian people here. I was friends with MANY in school!! Just to clear that up..}

As for why I read your blog? Your blog is on a popular site that gives a list of blogs that are "stupidly hilarious." It's something to do while there is downtime at work.

The things most people laugh at:
-Your made up words. "Radamasity" or whatever nonsense word you made up to mean randomness.
-The gross pictures of food you put up. Are you so delusional that you think people want to see that crap and learn your disgusting recipes?
-Those God awful, ugly bows you try to sell.
- The way you totally disrespect your husband and family members by talking bad about them on your public blog. I mean they can find that, you know? You're not the only one on the internet. All anyone would have to do it Google the names of you children and yourself and they would find your site.-
Your obvious narcissism. You take pictures of yourself then talk about how ugly you are in them. If you really thought that, you wouldn't post them. Oh and honey, you're not as thin as you think you are. Might want to rethink some of those tight shits. They make you look even bigger. It's much more flattering to wear clothes that actually fit you.

Basically most of your readers are people who laugh at you. Not with you. Ever wonder why you have so many hits a day? Most of them are not real fans of your ridiculous writings. Sure you have a few, but if you go their blogs or even read their comments, it's pretty obvious they aren't sharp ones either.

Your girls are adorable though. No one ever makes fun of them as far as I know. I know so many of your readers are going to be upset that you're private now but seriously, someone had to tell you how inane your blog was.

See ya, Sweetheart

A New Start?

That's what this feels like. I think that's okay though. Now instead of 230 followers, I have about 40. ha!

Here's the thing, I don't mind someone disagreeing with me, I totally respect that, but when it is turned around on a post that I wrote about Carrah, I find it disgusting and won't tolerate it. It's just easier to go private and the people that want to read..can read..the ones who want to be hateful..can't!

Thank you for all of your comments. I didn't expect you all to make me feel better because that wasn't what this was about, I just wanted to set the record straight. I'm not a racist in any form or fashion. It really hurts that someone would even think that.

So here we are now. It's kind of a bummer that I can't be public and spread the word about Albinism, but I like to think i've let a lot of you know and that you will pass the word on. If you have friends that want to view my blog, email me their email addy (please let it come from you..so nothing tricky goes on)

Nothing Like a Good Ol Dose of HATE Mail

..to brighten you day. Good grief people, really?

When I said Carrah's glasses look "chinky", I simply meant "cheap looking" OKAY?!?! I do not have a problem with Chinese people, that is so silly to even discuss. Why the hell would I say her glasses looked like a derogatory Chinese person or a dent in metal? I'm so so ignorant, I know. Anyway, if you have my email, mail me. I'm definitely going private now. I don't have the patience to put up with stuff like this. My blog. My journal. My thoughts. My words. My LIFE! My daughter has a lifelong condition and people make ignorant, stupid comments. Yes, it hurts when they do and yes I will say so. To even compare this word, that I used so innocently, to my child is unacceptable. Goodbye!!

The fabulous email (from someone who has left "super nice" comments before.)


I don't know how you can complain about ignorant people when you still have the word "chinky" in this post: http://lifeasamomat21.blogspot.com/2009/07/we-found-glasses.html

By not changing it after it was brought to your attention that the word "chink" is the n-word to a Chinese person (like myself) or could also mean a small dent in metal, you are showing your own ignorance.

You are either saying your daughter's glasses make her look like a dent in metal or a derogatory word for a Chinese person. If that's not what you mean then you would have changed it. If you don't, expect to get flooded with a bunch of comments and emails from a few Asian equality rights groups I'm apart of.

Also, there are WAY more Chinese people in this world than there are people with Albinism. You would think that since you aren't sensitive to the Chinese culture then people are not going to be too sensitive to people with Albinism. It's simple math, sweetheart.

A Stranger's Ignorance Irks Me Once Again..

If I wanted to let my anger get the best of me, this blog title would read "A Stranger's Ignorance Really PISSED Me Off Today!!", but I counted to ten, let the blood that had run to my face flow back to where it belonged and managed to concoct a smile that would almost pass for geunine.

I had to make a post office run to mail some packages that were much overdue. While standing in line, several people behind us made sweet comments about CareBear's glasses.."Oh she is just precious in her lil glasses." "She is stylin'" etc.. However, one woman took it upon herself to ask every single detail about my chlid's life.

"How did you know she needed glasses at such a young age?"
Me trying to get my stuff together to walk out while MissPriss yanks on my arm.."She clearly had vision problems"
Staring at me with a blank look.."Like what? How did you know?"
Still obviously trying to leave, I said "Nystagmus, Strabismus, and Albinism"
"Huh? What's that?" in a snarky, rude, uptight beyotch kinda way.
"She is Albino!!" I said as my face turned the brightest shade of red possible and sweat started to fall from my forehead.
Getting RIGHT in Bear's face.. "Oh. I thought they{whomever the heck they are is to her? Prob the Discover Channel or something..} said in animals they aren't truly Albino unless they have pink eyes."
Almost in a moment of shock, I sort of laughed in a huff and said "Yes that's prob true for animals. But she has grayish blue eyes and does have Albinism." and walked out before she could say anything else, which she clearly wanted to!!

OHMIGOSH!!!!!!! I know that I have to deal with this for the rest of my life, I just pray {and ask that you pray for me} that it will get easier some day. It seriously makes my heart beat so incredibly fast that my adrenaline starts and I want to say something so incredibly rude back to these ignorant people. Then I think about my kids standing right there looking to me for guidance. I will not let these strangers ignorance provoke me in that way..even though it is tempting.

Seriously though lady?.. Are you really comparing her to an animal that you saw on some random show?! Ugh!
