"You do have help don't you?"
People must either assume:
A - We are made of money because we have triplets
B - I can't handle them myself (or must not think I am doing a good job)
C - Raising triplets is a piece of cake if you do have help. (LOL)

It has just really been bugging me how people who don't have multiples assume that you
must have Help. Worse is the inferrence that people who do have help are in some way
inferior to those of us who are forced to "go it alone".

I just have to say Help or No Help. Kudos to all Moms of Multiples who find a way to raise
happy kids and who survive each day one day at a time. I'm living proof that you can do it alone!
