I did it...one of those huge social faux pas. Thank god, no, I didn't ask a non-pregnant lady when she was having her baby.
I did, however, ask a 60+ year old woman and her 68+ year old husband how old their granddaughter was.
"Oh, she's our daughter. She'll be six in a few months."
Ok Ramona, put your foot in your mouth and walk away. Me, no. I'm not slick like that. So I ask where they adopted her from.
HOLY CRAP I JUST ASKED WHAT!?!? Do I EVER think before I speak!?!? Rarely.
"The Philippines. It was a four year process........"
Thank you, Lord. It was obvious as the little girl was obviously not the daughter to the two old white folks. They went on to tell me their awesome and insane adoption story. Apparently you must reside in the Philippines for three years once you gain possession of the child (that sounds terrible...gain possession?).
Hm. Very interesting. Let's try and keep our mouth shut next time, yes?
