16 rather than 12

I'm watching my kids along with some neighborhood kids. I just answered a knock at the door, it went like this:

Me: Hello

Solicitor: Hi, is you mom or dad home?

Me: No

Solicitor: Okay, maybe next time.

I don't mind looking young (my mom looks amazing!), but with that is a lack of respect for me as a mother and wife and the experience and wisdom I like to think I have acquired through the years. Part of me was relieved that I didn't have to listen to his spiel. Part of me thought WTF?!! At least I hope when people see me with my THREE kids they think 16. Whoop! Whoop! and not 12, sheeze!

for the record I'm going to be 32 people!

I guess there are a few perks...we took my niece (Amira) to the the movies one time and she and I were charged the kids rate. haha!

Sorry man, but you gotta admit if you were hearing it about someone else, you'd be laughing.

I'm sure that is frustrating. Don't worry, when you really get "old" the paybacks will be SWEET! :)
