Miss Japan is Crowned

I’m not much of a pageant watcher, but I did see this morning that Miss. Japan won the Miss Universe pageant. I am always conscious of the fact that it is good for our adoptees (especially girls) to see this happen. As much as I avoid the pageants, it is good for them to see that there is beauty in Asian features. Despite changing times, the media and the entertainment industry is still predominantly a Caucasian world.

Take note: Miss Korea was the third runner up. Not bad for the Asian continent.

I just wanted you to know that I came across your blog, for the first time, over at adoptionblogs.com, just in time for your last post. I am doing research for a calendar I am making intended to celebrate all families, primarily those formed through adoption and the celebrations of holidays around the world that will help families inject the birth cultures of their children into their home lives. I found your posts on different Korean holidays so helpful, they are mapped out on my template. Thanks.
Enjoy your vacation.
