"Is this your first baby?"
"Well, no, it's actually my fourth..."
"Oh wow! You must be pretty busy! How old are your other children?"
"Umm, well, Sabrina is 7 and I had twins 2 years ago, but they passed away."
"Oh. I'm so sorry" {awkward pause}
Why doesn't this conversation get any easier? Why do I find it so hard to find a comfortable way to acknowledge all my children? I need to practice a script. Maybe it should go like this:
"Sabrina is 7 and my twins Nicholas & Olivia would be 2 1/2. They're in Heaven now."
I'm open to suggestions.
