(1/3) “My son has blond hair and blue eyes; I’m half Asian and much darker than him. His light coloring was definitely a surprise to my family and me when he was born, and nursing was a really straightforward way to establish that even if we look pretty different on the outside, I’m still his mom and he’s still my kid. I’ve been biracial my whole life, and have made peace with that. But this was a new navigation of race and culture all over again.”
