Devlin is half-Kornean

Devlin is becoming aware that people look different, and are probably from different parts of the world. For instance, he knows he's half-Kornean (as he used to say when he couldn't quite pronounce Korean), and he's half-mungee cake. Okay, that's a bit of a slam to his non-Kornean side, but it's pretty funny to hear him proclaim himself as such.
One day, his uncle asked him about his friends at school, and Devlin provided details about their names.
Uncle Billy: And what do they look like?
Devlin: What do you mean?
Billy: Do they look like me, or do they look like your dad?
Devlin (looking at his uncle like his uncle had grown 3 heads): They look like themselves!
Billy (laughing) : I mean, do they look Asian like me, or do they look "white" like your dad?
Devlin: They're brown, like from Africa.

So, I guess he's figuring out that different looking people originate from different parts of the world.

Then on the weekend, we had this conversation after his skating lesson.

Devlin: Mommy, you know that boy who skates and glides really good?
Mommy: Yes?
Devlin: He's Korean.
Mommy: How do you know?
Devlin: I saw his face. His eyes look closed.
Mommy (trying not to laugh): Well, he could be Chinese. In fact, I think he is Chinese.
Devlin: How come Korean eyes look closed?
Mommy: That's how God made them.

Moral of the story: It takes more than black hair and yellow skin to be Korean.
