We were pretty prepared and had just started to feel like we could relax with the transracial part of it all a little when WHAM...DH and Ty were out at a restaurant and were completely ignored by everyone for 45 minutes, even after a couple of the families around him that were eating made a comment to their own waitress about it. 
I guess our biggest challenge isn't dealing with it, since we're ready etc, it's the surprise attacks just when you get comfortable. For me, it's not hard to deal with when it happens, but it's hard to live your life always waiting for it.
