The last family vacation we took was to Sunset Beach the summer that my brothers and I were 18, 19, and 20 years old. Of course we would spend the days walking around and talking to girls.

We met a group of girls from Virginia, and decided to tell them that we were triplets. We all have similar builds, and look roughly the same age. We kept this story going all day, and then we ran into our parents.

One of the girls asked our mom if it was true that we were triplets. We all figured our story was over, since mom is incapable of lying. Instead of lying, she said to the girl, “I was there when all of them were born.” She didn’t exactly answer the question, but she did tell the truth, and we got to keep our silly story going for the day.
