What a blow to the ego!

Cori and i were waiting in the checkout line at Walmart and there was a a nice lady behind us and Cori started talking to her. One thing led to another and the nice lady and i were exchanging pleasantries. Somehow we came to what we each do for a living. She works at KMart and i told her that i quit my job to take care of Cori.

She then said that she would love to be able to do that for her granddaughter who is about Cori's age.... I paused and said, "I am her Mother." There was an awkward silence and then she said, "Oh, well that's even better isn't it?" Apparently i need more moisturizer and another box of hair color!! Holy Cow!
