“Wow, your hands are so full.”
I hear this approximately forty seven times every time I leave the house with all five kids. And every single time, something inside me is composing the perfect response while my mouth is just smiling and saying “haha, yeah!”
Because here’s the thing about me: I don’t actually want to make them feel bad, even when they’ve made me mildly uncomfortable. So the witty comebacks just live in my head, fully formed, completely unused, rent free forever.
If you need me I’ll be here, hands full, smiling politely, composing responses I’ll never use.
What’s the comment you get that you never know how to respond to? ↓
