Cuties. That's what I refer to my girls as, and quite frequently. I use this reassurance technique to let them know that they are pretty and cute, just because. Someone in the grocery store once said to me.."They're pretty cute, for albinos." Now what in the hell is that supposed to mean. So for all you ignorant idiots out there and simply curious folk. Here's a few picks of my beautiful blessed albinos. You know, not only melanin inclined people can win the beauty gene lotto.
This is an outlet to share, vent, suggest, compliment and comment with your concerns, fears, ideas and even frustrations in reference to raising or even teaching children with and about albinism. And possibly destroy or even confirm any myths about their behavior, tendancies and elevated learning insights.

Mommy, can you tell me what Albino means?
Kai just asked me, "Mommy, can you tell me what Albino means?" Now, she asks "Can you tell me what Albino means now?"
Wow. I reply "Well, albino is word used for people, animals and sometimes, things that lack color." Now she says, "Wow, thats what albino means?"
-No comment.
