Found your blog via Jungle Pop. We're living in the US now, but used to live in Ukraine. I'm very much enjoying the pictues and glimpses of life where you live. Hi, there!

It certainly isn't white. All children are beautiful. What your children are is different and very western looking. They stand out. In Korea, white children are also seen as different and "pretty," however they will also say that Korean children are the cutest and most beautiful. It's all relative really. I'm saddened by the skin lightening cremes. It creates a self-loathing that passes on to the children. Sounds like a good opportunity to explain to your children about what beauty is.
