People Say the Darndest Things!



I got tickled the other day just thinking about the funny things people have said to me since having five kiddos...

This summer our air-conditioner went out. The nice man who came over to fix it asked me if I was running a day-care? Yes, I take CARE of my children every DAY.

We had another nice man over to our home who asked if we had a blended family? Yes, God blended Brady and I's DNA pretty well, don't you think?

Every now and then I hear... "I have to ask, are they all yours?" Yes, would you like one?

And last but not least I hear this one at least once a week (I know you hear it too) "Boy, you've got your hands full TODAY!" Yes, EVERYDAY!!!!

When we go out to eat we are automatically considered a PARTY!! And when I order take-out Chinese food the sweet lady always asks "You have big Party?" Yes, we have big party everyday!!

I LOVE it!!! I get comments all the time with just having three.

We were at dinner with the Greifenkamps last night with all six kiddos....thinking we were pretty brave. They were actually all very well-behaved. Now we did laugh at what the floor looked like after we were done....oh well, thank goodness for big tips and brooms.

I hear the same thing, and it especially makes me laugh if one or more kids is not with me. I just say "these are not even all of them!"

We do have to laugh at some people's comments! It was fun to catch up on your blog, I love the packing peanut story (we have experienced that as well!) Looking forward to seeing you again soon! Happy New Year
