Things Not to Say

I was in the waiting room for Mateo's speech therapy and the kids were playing on the floor. I noticed a lady watching us closely. Then she said...

You're kids are gorgeous. Your husband must be very handsome.

Excuse me? Did I just hear you correctly? Am I not supposed to be offended that my kids would be cute only from him?

I had half a mind to say

No he's just as ugly as I am. We don't know where the kids got their looks from.

But I didn't. I graciously explained that they were adopted. What are people thinking?
