A friend and I were shopping for dresses for her three-year-
old girls to wear to a wedding. In the store, another girl
staring intently at Sarah and Becky asked, "Are those girls
twins?"
"Actually they're triplets," I said. "They have a brother
at home."
"Wow," she replied. "They sure look like twins to me."
I know that you believe that you understood what you think I said, but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
