Beautiful Baby

"What beautiful eyes he has!"

"She's just gorgeous!"

"What a cutie!"

"Her Daddy will be chasing the boys away!"

When we go out with our little ones, the comments pour in. So what's the best response? I never really know what to say. "Thank you" of course. But who are they complimenting? Me on my great genes? Or maybe they're complimenting me for picking a spouse with good genes. So is saying thank you really saying "thank you for thinking I'm nice looking" too?

Often when people tell me my kids are beautiful I'll say "I know, aren't they?" But then I get funny looks. So I guess it's back to "Yes they are. And I made them that way. Well, with a little bit of help from Daddy."

ha ha, I have always thought that too!
Well, you emailed me about GC's. I really am not sure. Did you go to the Coco website. I might be going there soon, and I could ask, but I think they might have the info on their webpage...
It seems lots of places do have them...
Hope this helps a bit :o)
