Some people!!!

So, today at swim lessons I was talking to a mom who had a daughter about the same age as Lucy and Ava. She seemed nice enough, but she was one of people that just keep talking and talking and talking, never letting the other person get a word in. Anyway, towards the end of the one sided conversation she said to me, "wow, are they twins?" I said, "Yes, they are." You will never guess her response... With a roll of her eyes she said, "I'm sorry!" Gosh, why in the world would someone say that? I am not sorry that I have two beautiful healthy, happy well behaved children. Children are a precious gift, whether you had to pay thousands upon thousands of dollars to get them here, of if you were blessed with having a child naturally. Every child is a gift.... I will never be sorry I had children, no matter how hard and challenging they can. I was so shocked by this woman's response that I just didn't answer, I just didn't know what to say to her......
