Stupid Things People Say

"Well, you've finally got your boy!"

"So, are you done now?"

If we had a dollar for all the times we've heard that in the last two and a half weeks....  People seem to think that we were hellbent on having a boy, that could be the only reason why we would have five children.

I'm sorry... is there something wrong with our girls? Yeah, no, I didn't think so. Now we add the above comments to the list of stupid things people have said to us since late last year.

You don't get what you want in this world, you get what you need.

If we got what we wanted we'd only have two kids, a vacation home on Mykonos Island in Greece, we would have won the bid on the lake house we wanted to move to two years ago, and we wouldn't have had all the "experiences" of the past three years that helped us to question friendships, learn about each other, fix ourselves and grow.

We got what we needed.

And that included five children.

And you never know. We might just get a little brother for our son.  (wink)
