In honor of Small Business Saturday, Himself and I went to the local town square to browse the shops and do a bit of shopping. There’s one I’ve been wanting to go into for quite a while, a yarn and knitting shop, that we wandered into.
I was talking to the owner asking about classes when I noticed some samples up on the wall. One was the most adorable knit jumper for a baby girl. I pointed it out to Himself and we both thought it would be perfect for baby Sara.
The owner, hearing this, asked us Is that your granddaughter?
Now I know we're no spring chickens, but grandparents???

What?!? Who says stuff like that?
ReplyDeleteMore importantly, did you spend $25 on your American Express, so you could get it all back?
Wha?!?! I really wonder if people think...
ReplyDeleteBoy oh boy. Once a cashier thought I was my sisters mom. An exercise in humility...
ReplyDeleteI'd probably laugh but you gotta remember...there are really young women having babies nowadays...so that means grandparents are younger too. In our culture...anything goes. I have f.b friends my age that have been grandparents for a long time already. Eeekkk...
ReplyDeleteI've got to admit we thought it was funny. My parents had me when they were 23. Had Hiimself and I met and married at that age, we could have a 25 year old - eeeks!
ReplyDeleteNo way! That's just silly. :) I do miss that little town square (I did some consulting work for the city many moons ago). :)
ReplyDeleteIf it's any consolation, we've gotten that.
