More comments for you

1. "You have triplets??? I'm sorry..." - Don't be sorry, we are happy and blessed to have them.

2. "Three babies... I wouldn't want three...not all at once." - Guess that's why God gave me three at once instead of you.

3. "You are Christ blessed" - Wow! A nice comment, thanks!

4. This one is more of a story I will have to explain it so you can get the full effect of what was said. So, we were in Target again last weekend (yes, I live there). I was walking down a main aisle and I saw this woman look at me, then go back down the aisle she was on with her husband. I heard her say, "look" or "watch this" to her husband and when I passed by they were both looking at me. Keep in mind, I was pushing the double stroller and Craig was right behind me with another baby in the Bjorn. Then, I heard the woman say "wait for it..." then Craig passed by, which was what they were waiting for. Freak show I tell ya! Nothin' but a freak show!

5. "Do triplets run in your family?" Surprisingly... they do!

6. One Target clerk asked me a ton of questions. "How old are they?" "How much did they weigh at birth?" "How much do they weigh now?" "How many weeks did you carry them?" "How do you do it?" "Do you have help?" "How often do they eat?" "Do you get any sleep?" (This is a popular question)
7. "Twins!!" then, Craig or I walk around the corner... "Oh... Triplets!!!"
8. "I don't know how you are doing it!" "I've got identical 7 month old twins and it doesn't get any easier!"
9. "Three... how precious."
10. "You just had triplets??? You look good for having 5 month old triplets!" THANKS! I love that comment.

As Mom has told me different times..."You should write a book" maybe you should, too...as if either of us have time;-). By the way I agree w/ the lady you do look great! I've always heard the guys have pregnancy, too...Craig looks great as well.;-) Just guys just look so satisfied...like the journey is difficult but such a blessing. Isn't it neat that even though people obviously give you guys much more attention than you want they also see the blessing. d-

Amy,
Just checking on your mom. We have been lifting her up in prayer as well as your whole family. Give us an update or if you would rather not, maybe some direction in how to pray more specifically.

Your blogger friend,
Amberly
