Kids are kids, ya know?<BR/><BR/>I find that if I'm taking photos say, at a church event, kids always come up and say "take a picture of me!" and then "let me see it!", as they are already so used to the instant gratification of a digital photograph.JAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04272374108524693575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-45846642108286480042007-06-01T12:10:00.000-04:002007-06-01T12:10:00.000-04:00When Kate was tiny a group of Japanese tourists in...When Kate was tiny a group of Japanese tourists in Chester stopped and asked by gestures if they could take her photo. We agreed but they then picked her out of her pushchair and EACH had a pic taken holding her! She really enjoyed it and I often wonder how the pictures were described when they were shown to the folks back in Japan LOLCGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13773161375865716360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-62190088470497824282007-06-01T11:26:00.000-04:002007-06-01T11:26:00.000-04:00We are all the same, just the language, skin color...We are all the same, just the language, skin color and some traits change.

There were some little kids (about 4 or 5) who used to point at us and call us "wai guo ren" which means foreigner, but literally means "other country person." So we started pointing to them and saying "Zhong guo ren!" which means china person. ha! They got the biggest kick out of that. They would laugh and giggle. It was a fun game, and very soon they were handing us candy. :)<BR/><BR/>Great pictures, and I love the boy with the sticker on his forehead.
