I bought this book from Amazon.

It has lots of visuals, which I love.

Mainly bought it for my kids, who are half Hmong and Cambodian. They are always curious about their culture history.

Beautiful cover :) I always try and educate myself about my heritage at least once each day with something new. I'm going to check at Barnes if this book is in stock! Thanks!!!

Hey FFD - thanks for visiting the blog. I couldn't comment on your blog. But I think you're really pretty and don't look Hmong. I will try my best to post more thoughts about Hmong people on the blog since I wasn't able to find any more news recently.

Thank you Nicki :) I get that alot that I don't look Hmong. LOL
I'm new to blogging (thus, after college more time to free up!) so I am still new to the blogging world. About time I leap into the millenium! lol =P I'll check why you can't post on my page?? Hmm..*scratches head*
I think it's great your kids want to learn about our heritage. I see your passionate about it also. My dad and I watch documentaries together a lot and he shares books with me also so I share the closeness with your ties to your kids ;) This is the only way for me to preserve my culture as well by reading and watching historical documentories of "us". Like you, the older I've gotten (not a real word, lol) I've been more demoralized then ever and regret not appreicating it sooner. However, It's never too late :) Thanks for your blogs. I'll learn a lot and read a lot of them.

Have a great day my beautiful sister!

Thanks again Chan!

I know nothing about makeup so would love to read more on your blog when you get the chance. :)

I've become more passionate about spreading the Hmong word in the past few years.

I still find it upsetting that many people don't know who Hmong people are. It also angers me that many people think just because my hubby isn't Hmong, that I wouldn't care about my Hmong heritage.

Do you have MySpace? If so, add me girl!

I don't have a MySpace. Use to! but find that I waste too much time on there. I will be here my friend! lols
I'll try my best with pointers on makeup. I'm not as savy as all these other girls out here but whatever my 2 cents is worth. Hahaha!

Ok, so I think I fixed my comment box so it should be good to go! lols

Funny - last week I opened a Facebook and it just wasn't too user friendly! So, I immediately closed it right away again. Boohoo! lols
