Conversation with a man at the pool today:
Him: How old are your kids?
Me: Speed is 3, Sunshine is 2, and Chickadee is 1.
Him: Those are great names. They are cute. When did they join your family?
Me: May 9.
Him: How lucky you and they are!
And that was it.
Please note the lack of the following:
Where are they from?
Did you plan on having them so close together?
Do you know how to do their hair?
Did you adopt them?
Are you their babysitter?
I wanted to hug this man. No one ever has conversations like this with me. I suppose he may have been curious about us, but he didn't ask. He just acknowledged their utter cuteness and our "family-ness". Thank you, Sir.
