[blparent] a funny one for the moms

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

Yeah, a friend of mine got asked that while I was with her on the bus. 
She's blind, with three kids who can all see, and some lady asked, "Where 
did you get those?"  Once my friend realized the woman was addressing her, 
and not talking about her shoes or earrings or something, she said, "Um, 
Wal-Mart?"  The woman persisted, saying she didn't know blind people could 
have kids, so my friend just answered that when it came right down to the 
mechanics, her eyes didn't have a whole lot to do with it.

Truth is tough. It will not break, like a bubble, at a touch; nay, you may 
kick it about all day like a football, and it will be round and full at 
evening.--Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

You never know what people are going to ask. I had someone ask where my son 
came from.
