I Hate When People Ask...(rant/vent)

"Do you want a boy or a girl?".  As if one sex or the other is "unwanted".  Obviously they don't mean to imply that, but it still bothers me.  We always just respond "we just want a healthy baby".  I know its perfectly okay to secretly wish for one or the other, but I wouldn't want to tell it to the world and then have them think I am disappointed if we had the opposite.  Its bad enough that MH's family is "expecting" us to have a boy and constantly vocalize that they really want it to be a boy.  I feel like saying "that's nice, maybe if it's a girl you won't come around as often and our baby wont have to listen to you slurp spaghetti and tell the worlds most boring stories over and over again".... End rant, thanks for hearing that one out. lol
