I never tell my children are not native Texans.They were born in Ca. during Navy days .We could use Texas plates on our car then....I just figure it doesn't count!
A friend and his wife are from Florida, and they met in college there. After graduation, she got a job here in Texas and they moved here. He got one here shortly thereafter. They have a daughter who was born here. A few years ago we were all in the car having a conversation, and their daughter mentioned the fact that she was born in Texas while her parents were born in Florida. She commented she was GLAD she was born in Texas. I latched on to that quickly, and told her: "Nikki, tell them that there are only TWO types of folks in this world - Texans and those that WISH they were Texans!" LOL !!!
