Calling All Married Friends

Let me preface this post by saying that I LOVE all of my friends' children who are male. They are all very sweet and fun and I'm thrilled you have them. (Or if you're pregnant with a boy, I will love your child and I'm in no way disappointed in you or upset with your baby's gender.)

But for the love of pete, will someone PLEASE get pregnant with a girl? I see cute little girl baby things all the time - bows, head bands, dresses, shoes, jewelry - and I am unable to purchase them for any of my friends because ... quite frankly ... it would be a little sad to see a baby boy in a ruffled lacy church dress and matching bow.

Plus, all the cute little girl names I hear about are completely wasted on boys and I'm running out of cute boy name suggestions (I'm only one person).

So I leave you with this plea ... If you're considering trying for a child or have already decided to try to become pregnant, THINK PINK and the rewards will be endless.

Query

A few weeks ago, Jay and I were driving to a friend's house and had to stop to fill up my car with gas. While the gas was pumping, I happened to glance up and see this sticker and noticed a moment later that the same sticker was on all of the pumps at this particular gas station: (the last word says Approval-not really important but just thought I'd throw that in there)

I immediately started cracking up, amazed that someone would make that mistake. I look over to the other side of the car only to see that Jay isn't laughing. Apparently, I have an odd sense of humor that makes me crack up when I see publicly posted gramatical errors.

After realizing that my hilarious discovery was in fact ... not that hilarious to my dear husband, I immediately set my sights on finding someone who would be as amused as I was.

We arrived at our friends house and I shared with them the once-thought funny photo taken of the sticker. Again .... no amusement.

I showed it to my family the following Sunday afternoon and finally received the laughter that I was hoping for from the start. (Almost a full week later)

So my question ... Is it really that weird that I'm so amused by the mistake of others (seriously, does no one proof read anymore before putting signs and stickers up at their place of work?) or did I just happen to show it to the wrong people?
