Yes, I've been told that exact same thing - but I also know, many times people aren't trying to be offensive, but rather have good intentions (sometimes!). Being pregnant often brings equally crazy statements and comments, not to mention you're now free game for a pat on the tummy......people come in all shapes and sizes, and smart and not so smart, but I hear you. On my worse days, I really felt hurt when someone would tell me "God gave you Robbie because He knew you could handle it". THAT stung, because I adopted my little FAE baby out of foster care, then the next statement would be "God doesn't make mistakes." Often, it's challenging to shore up the dichotomy in comments. Same strange comment akin to if you have skin cancer - someone will say, "at least you don't have brain cancer." WHAT? We live in a crazy world. You're the best, Kate, and you're an absolute blessing to this planet. Keep going!
Great interview Kate! Look like you had a good time, so relaxed. Can I trouble you to get the link for the NC book store? I’d gladly purchase another book with all six of you signed. 😊
