Stranger Danger
I was at the grocery store today and some older gentleman came by and tussled Ethan's hair and exclaimed "I have more hair than you do,sonny boy. Haha!" and kept walking. It made me wonder what makes people think that people's children are fair game in the grocery store? It is like a little magical world where people are allowed to paw your children and laugh about it. And don't even get me started on being a pregnant woman in a grocery store. Do I look like I am going to pop a genie out of me? then stop rubbing my belly! (that is what went through my mind,anyway. well, that and a lot of 4 letter words) Anyway,back to the point. If some stranger walked up to your child in, let's say, a park and started touching them or asking to hold them or just randomly playing with them, you would go into attack mode. . .mother bear and cub mode. . .stranger danger mode. But in a grocery store,oh no. . .people just walk right up and start playing with your kid and you are supposed to smile and think it is all innocent fun. But I don't know if you are a pervert. Or on the sex offender website. Or just a creepy old man. So keep your paws to yourself. *smile* Please.
