Got My 1st Silly Comment!

Well, this comment was more towards the # of kids I have (5)...but it still falls into the "not so smart" category!! I took all 5 to McDonalds to celebrate the end of their Spring Break. Of course, the girls in the double stoller got "oh & ah" over, which was fun. Then some guy says, "Are they all your's?" I confirmed they were indeed. Then he says, "are you happy?"...I said, "what?"...him, "are you happy, you know, uh, happy?"...LOL, I replied, "yes, they are good kids".

what the heck do you say to that? "no, I'm suicidal." lol

 

Wow! That's a new one! I have 5 also and get the looks!

 

Are you happy? Wow, that is a new one.

 

Speaking of being out with lots of kids....I had the twins (in a stroller) and my older son and his best friend out walking around downtown. I RUDE man came up to me and said, "Why don't you have more kids with that uterus of yours!" I was so taken back that I didn't answer and just kept on walking! Had I been thinking clearly, I should have said, "I enjoy the money the state gives me for welfare for each child! That is why I keep having them." (Just to get a rise out of him.

 

I also have 5 and I thought I had heard them all, but that is a new one. I did have a lady tell me not long ago "better you than me." I just agreed with her, the nerve of some people! Personally, I think 5 is a great number!

 

I only have my two but I plan on having more. I already get strange looks with the twins. Having large families used to be the norm, its amazing that people have forgotten that. My granddad is one of 16.

 

We have five, a "yours, mine and ours" situation. We have full custody of my daughter from a first marriage and both of my step daughters as well... and of course the twins. I raise them all full time and they all call me "Mom". When people find out 2 of them are step daughters they say "oh so they are not all "really" yours"... well yes they are all "mine"... how do you think that makes my SD feel!!?? Like I am gonna say "on no.. they arent "really" mine" some people... I guess I know what they are thinking ... but do they realize what they are saying and how horrid it sounds to a 7 and 5 year old!?
