Today as we were leaving walmart I stopped at redbox to get the kids a movie and this lady came up to me and said,"Oh my three boys" and I was like great here we go but she just went on and on about how wonderful having boys was and how cute they were and how lucky I was and how much easier and better they are to raise lol. It was NICE for a change! I get soo tired of people being like, "Omg 3 boys, you poor thing!" or "aren't you going to try for a girl" or "It takes a special person to raise all boys". Good grief! Very refreshing to have someone say something POSITIVE about having all boys!

That is so nice to hear! I also always get the "poor you" comments when people see or hear that I have three boys. When I was pregnant with my third and found out it was another boy someone actually said to me, "I'm sorry!" Like it was a bad thing and how could I possibly want another boy? I wonder if people with three girls get those comments.

I hate when people say oh 2 boys.... What the Huck does that mean? I also get asks all the time are you going to have a third and try for a girl??? I always say no. I would like another boy!

Yeah the poor you comments make me crazy!! And I've had people say "I'm sorry" and "too bad" and "what a shame!"... which just makes me sooo angry! Like it's so terrible not having one of each. I like to think it makes us kind of special.

I always get asked if I am going to try for "that girl". I actually might in the future as I do yearn for a daughter, but I don't think it's a bad thing having 2 sons. I wouldn't change either of them for anything in the world.
