Makes me think

Back in high school, I had this friend named Lori.  Well we were more friends because her family went to the same church I did, and she was trouble and my mom or her mom thought I would be a good influence. Well, she was interesting to say the least but she had this crazy ole family and a million people lived at her house.  You see, her dad had three kids with his first wife.  Then married Lori's mom and had three kids with her.  Then she divorced him and married this guy who had a daughter.  Then they had three kids.  That is right, do the math and you get 10 total.  Plus I think there was an aunt who had a few kids in the mix some of the time anyways.  Needless today, fitting all that (well the 3 eldest did not live there) in a 3 bd house did not happen.  I think Lori lived in a tent in the backyard one summer, but that is a whole other issue there.

If you are wondering if there is a point, there is, just hang on.  I was over spending the night (because you know, what is one more kid in the mix, right?) well I got to talking to her crazy ole uncle ed.  he was not old, maybe 30ish but to a 15 yr old, that is old.  He and her mom told me that in all the siblings, each has this, i don't know what to call it, but like some mental sensing ability.  Like her mom swore that she could tell when any family member was in pain or hurt or how bad it was.  Like when Lori got hit by a car when she was younger, Jessie (her mom) knew straight away.  Well Ed said that he could walk up to any pregnant lady and tell her what she was having, having 100% success.  He also could tell any woman how many kids she would have and the sex of each.  (no, he was not an alcoholic, did not drink, just weird I guess).  Well anyway he told me that I would have 3 kids, two boys and a girl but not that order.  I had forgotten that until the other day I was making eggs and one of my eggs had a twin yolk. (See picture posted on previous posting) Not sure where the thought came from, but he was right.  I have 3 and it is two boys and a girl but not in that order.  How weird is that?
