My favorite is: Are they all yours? Answer in head - Well, considering they all look alike I couldn't have possibly picked them up on the side of the road or in the woods as my 3 yro says. Answer aloud - Why yes they are, with a polite nod of my head and a big smile!

I'm starting to get asked what I'm going to do after highschool. I'm afraid I'm not very good at being respectful with my answer. Question: Where are you going to college? Answer in head: I don't think most people should waste their time and money on college. I definitely don't think girls should go. Answer out loud: I'm not going to college. Next inevitable question: Well what are you going to do then? Answer in head: What every girl should be doing. Answer out loud: Staying home and helping my parents until I get married. Nest inevitable question: Any prospects yet? :with grin: Answer in head: Duh! I'm not old enough yet! Answer out loud: :with a chuckle: No. ~Tee-Kaye

You have got such a back bone to not only stand up for what you believe in but to also speak out about it. I admire you greatly. I too often say my "in my head" responces out loud . . . . . not such a good thing ususally. The typical remark I get about our large family (7 children) is: "My, you have your hands full!!!" and I respond with: "Yes, and it is far better than having my hands empty." I usually do not get further questions after that. But when I do it is typically: "Are you Mormon or Catholic or something?" It amazes me that perfect strangers fell it necessary to inquire (so boldly) as to my personal life. I have had a man ask me (seemingly in much sincerity) if I knew how this happens. And here is when one of my "In my head comments" slipped out and embarrassed us both. Many Blessing to you; CarrieAnn

Sunday, May 18, 2008 - I can relate

Posted by jesusbmylight

I'm always getting asked what I plan to do when I 'grow up'. In the form of; "what collage are you thinking of attending?" and "what do you want take?" or "be" when I get older. They always look at me strangely when I say; "whatever God wants me to be." But, oh yea, I can totally relate with the questions you're asked. Our answers are acutely similar. :-) Oh, and another question I was asked (when I was 13!) was; "are all these children yours?!!" when I was taking my troop of siblings to the bathroom in a department store. Sakes.

Hmm.. strange, but I'm always asked the same questions!! One question that my siblings and I are always asked is: "Do you always act this good??" answer in head: you should see us be goofy/crazy at home!! answer out loud: "not ALL of the time!" funny what weird things people ask you, even when they don't know you!! There is a health food store that we shop at, and the employees ALWAYS tell us that we are the perfect family and that we are their role models... don't know what in the world we are doing, but it must be something good!!

Anyway, I agree with most of your questions such as kids, homeschooling, and dress! another thing I hear is "You COURT! ha ha! not holding hands! ridiculous! Sorry this was such a long comment!
