Shane has my mom's eyes (lucky him!). They are also born on the same month and on the same Chinese zodiac year.
My mom and I have a very close relationship and I'm very thankful for that. Both of my parents are pretty liberal and not traditional. I never had a curfew growing up and they always trusted me to do the right thing. It was really hard for them to leave me here in the States when I decided to stay and pursue my degree at RISD, when my dad was due back in Korea after working for the Korean Embassy as a diplomat in NY. It was heartbreaking but they let me go and do my own thing. Even though we live thousands of miles away they are always close to my heart. Kids are really bonding with my parents and it's a true joy watching them enjoy each other.
I wish I will be as beautiful as she is when I become a grandmother.
