Was at the chiropractor (for the first time ever) yesterday finally getting this back pain assessed. As I was waiting, a couple people commented on the kids.
Older lady: "Are they twins?"
Me: "Yes, m'am."
Older lady: "I couldn't imagine having two the same age."
Her friend: "I saw a lady with three that were so close in age, I just don't understand why someone would want to do that."
Older lady: "How old are they?"
Me: "My oldest is three and the twins are two."
Older lady and friend: "Wow."
Man: "Are they twins?"
Me: "Yes, they are."
Man: "I wasn't sure, because they don't look alike."
Me: No response. You're right they are not identical; one is a boy and one is a girl. And they do not have the same colored eyes, hair, and facial features what so ever.
Nope, I do not see any similarities what so ever. None.
People should really think before they speak.
How annoying! Makes you want to slap people sometimes!
ReplyDeleteI have a twin brother and we got the "they don't look identical" thing a lot. Once from a health teacher and biology teacher! You can't be identical if you aren't the same sex!

ReplyDeletePeople should really, really think sometimes. The older I get, the more I am convinced.
ReplyDeletePeople are idiots...enough said.
