I'm married
to a Spanish/Mexican from Texas. He's been in the islands for about 20
years now but when he tries to talk pigeon, or use local slangs, it just
doesn't sound right. There's still that Texas twang in there, it's so
funny. And you're right about teaching them to ignore
what your mother says sometimes. ~ Pearl Daimaru-Orozco |

deference, every young person we saw would address us as aunty and
uncle. My husband, new to Hawaii and to marriage, asked "exactly how
many nieces and nephews do we have?" ~La Rena Saul |

When I
visited my in-laws on the mainland, the relatives commented how
"Japanese" my babies looked. When I took my babies to Japan, the
Japanese people told me how "gaijin" they looked. ~ Gwen
