'Are ALL them your kids?'
Thats what I get from people when they see me out and about with the kids.
First they see the double stroller with the boys. I see the smile coming before it even hits their face, then they break out with 'awww....are they twins?'
Sometimes I actually dont see them....I got a tap on the shoulder once, had to turn all the way around for them to give me the 'are they twins?' question.
My answer is always the same, lol. "No, they aren't," I say. "But they MIGHT AS WELL BE!!" And I laugh, as I start to pass by.
THATS' when they see Samina on my back, in the carrier. Usually she is asleep, but sometimes she's looking right back at them. Inevitably the response is then, "OH, you got one on the BACK too? Girl!, you got your HANDS full! Good luck!" And they shake their head, with smiles, as they walk away.
And I'm like, 'yup!' And I feel blessed to have them all.
