I found this in my drafts folder and it made me laugh out loud. These are real-life comments collected from various people (strangers and not) in my life. With a large family, I've had to develop a thick skin.
"This is my client, Heidi, and her baby. That's her fifth baby. But she's done."
"Oh, so this is your baby? You're done, right?"
"I've only been here [at my house] 30 minutes and I'm exhausted."
"I didn't think minivans had that many seat belts."
"My son and I were playing with dinosaurs and grouping them into families. He said, 'These ones could be the Bartles! There's a mom and a dad and a boy and a boy and a boy and a girl and a girl! Whoa! That's a lot of dinosaurs!"
I would add the "kids say the darndest things" tag to this post, but all of these comments came from adults. Gotta love it.

Love it! So far I've only gotten the, "You must be busy" and "You've got all your helpers here today." And sometimes that's only when I have 2 or 3 of them with me.
Those are actually pretty tame! Sometimes I can't believe the "input" people have over my five boy family. I want to ask, "Are you my personal gender counselor?"
