We don't have our daughters from Ethiopia and China yet, but I think this would be my reaction as well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12733880796383534427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647836844269802942.post-22492332746244106372010-04-15T12:16:17.428-05:002010-04-15T12:16:17.428-05:00You're so right about people just being curiou...You're so right about people just being curious. They really don't know how awful they sound and don't really want to offend you. I would have been in the same boat as you because thankfully, I'm not quick-witted when it comes to responding.

We stepped into an elevator with a black family. It appeared they consisted of a grandpa, his daughter and her teenaged son. We all smiled and said our polite hellos. Then the mom remarked at how much Jonas and Rory favored each other (meaning they resembeled each other.)She got her father in on the action and he agreed. Then she looked right at me and said, "He looks just like you!" <br /><br />hahahah I was completely dumbfounded. :-)My daughter Rory was laughing and speechless herself.beBOLDjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11430439816709121014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647836844269802942.post-310773978249863922010-04-15T11:14:50.393-05:002010-04-15T11:14:50.393-05:00AMEN!

Glad you allowed God to rule your heart and not be oversensitive . . . we've been home a little over a month, and I'm praying I will not be offended by any comments, but be filled with God's grace so I can use every opportunity to allow His glory to be seen through me!Joe & Sarah McDanielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18215428069373633981noreply@blogger.com
