We have had our fair share of .......... <ahem> girls my has son picked in the past..... As for "our own kind".....never fully wrapped my mind around that one when people say that куп глупости
(as my Bulgarian gramma would call it) As for my husband, I met him at a friends family cookout and I knew God had sent him my way. This was confirmed thru our pastor one Sunday morning when he called us up front during the middle of a sunday service! God has blessed our marriage and family beyond words thru the years! I never seen a "black man".....I seen a goodlooking guy who smiled at me and asked me my name.....and here we are 32 years later....33 years TOMORROW July 8th!!! True love sees no color, age or shape. I can get along Lucifer if I have to as long as he don't tread on my space and mess with my kids! I despise racism of ANY type and think its from SMALL minded fools who have no sense of even who they are themselves!

Happy Anniversary!!! I think it's wonderful when someone says that God brought them together because I believe God did that for my husband and I as well.

You have a rainbow family too...and I also despise racism in any form.

As for 'your own kind', there is only one kind.

I can speak to what you have in bold, because my niece has experienced that identify crises, her father being Hispanic. Even though a good and decent man, she still struggles with who she is.

One day she was crying and saying, putting her hand up to divide her face, "Half of me is white and half of me is Hispanic. I don't know who I am."

I felt sorry for her, because I don't know what that feels like. All we can do is assure her of our love.

It does render a good example of why some people are opposed to bi-racial marriages. It may not effect the parents as much as it does the children. And in some instances, it effects neither parent nor child.

But for this child, it is a traumatic issue for her. Something she lives with every day of her life.

I'm really not sure why that is either, but then again, I'm a Heinz 57 white girl. I can't say that what I've seen in common. My sister in law lives with her white mother and although her children have a black father, they all live with my white mother in law. They don't seem to care (of course, they live near Chicago also) and have friends of all races and ethnicities.

I once asked my husband about how life was for him having a black sister and brother both being born in the 1970's. He shrugged and said nobody ever said anything about it nor was he ever teased in school. He said they weren't the only kids who had black and white parents either so it never mattered any to him.

Culture might play into it somehow as well. It would be interesting to know why she feels so torn in half.

Thank you friend! I am 100 % positive God brought us together!!! Like I said it was confirmed thru the pastor and it blew us both away when that happened! But today July 8th stands as my personal testimony that God did it!!!!
