  He's such a cutie pie! His mommy left him alone with me for a few hours yesterday. Lol, Auntie CC almost gave up. *Sighs* Back to work tomorrow...... I should've taken two weeks off.

[TuesdaysGirl]

It's a new year. I'm excited and happy to have another sister. Mom couldn't be happier. We loved her from the start.

[TuesdaysGirl]

I'm super exhausted, but it was worth it. I hope they remember the tears of joy and overwhelming labor of love should they come across any difficulties building their life together.

Tuesday, that's a really nice setup.  The blue Hmong clothes are awesome.

everything has changed and yet nothing has changed. Autumn is already here and soon winter.

[TuesdaysGirl]

Attending a wedding over the weekend, one of the aunties asked me why I am still not married. I simply said I'm like the swift bird and walked away. I know that in Hmong culture, marriage is a coming-of-age thing, but I find myself always ready to see where the wind takes me. Like the swift bird, spending nearly their entire lives in flight, I want to explore every inch of life.

My effing gosh

2008?

You a legend girl

[TuesdaysGirl]

Driving to work this cold morning a song came on and reminded me of that time our flight was delayed and we spent the night causing all kinds of trouble in Memphis. LOL. You asked me if we could ever settle down but we both knew our ambitions were too big at the time. I hope you're happy.

my auntie set me up on a date last night. I don't know what it is about Hmong men and how intimidated they are by Hmong women who work and are independent. He was telling me about how he thinks a woman should raise children, cook, and clean. I was thinking that I made more money than he does, and maybe we should switch roles. LOL.

I’m not intimidated by independent working Hmong women and I’m Hmoob. Lots of Hmong folks can’t survive with just one income household so both are encouraged to contribute. Rocky, another pher, loves to wear the skirt in his family and that is perfectly fine too.

Stereotypes and traditional roles aside, it is what it is, regardless of race or creed.

It doesn't matter who has the better paying job, as long as both of you ARE working. I still come across GenX-er's (Hmong men) who would rather sit at home and collect "free" money. On the flip side I also come across Hmong women who wouldn't mind being anything more than a housewife.

In the end, You find someone or something that works for You and your potential mate. GL out in the wild.
