A Short Tale of a Blond Baby

One of my coworkers was just recently able to move her family over to Korea.  I asked her tonight how everyone was adjusting.  "Oh, it's great!" she said.  "We're loving being here together.  My husband was just hired by one of the defense contractors here, so we're excited about that.  My two-year-old is really excited to go back to daycare--she misses her friends and getting to play with other kids.  You know we've been taking her down to the playground in front of the apartment, and she'll try to strike up conversations with the Korean kids, but they don't understand her and don't really want to play.  She gets so frustrated!  But she's definitely enjoying minor celebrity status--the Koreans love her blond hair."

Heh.
