Today my youngest son said to me, "Mommy, I really wish I had a sister."
What I wanted to say:
Shut your mouth, you insensitive little twerp! You think I'm thrilled your sister died? You think I enjoy watching everyone around me have daughters, knowing I never will? Take the knife and twist it why don't you?
What I actually said:
I know sweetie. That's why God gave you girl cousins to play with. You'll have plenty of time to get to know your sister in heaven. Just be thankful you have a brother. Now eat. Your breakfast is getting cold.
