Are we really that interesting?


Why is it that when I am with the kids out in public I feel like I am with someone famous, with the amount of people that stare and comment? Lately it has become really obvious to me and is starting to bug me. Maybe I just notice it more because I am not working and am with the kids a lot more, out and about doing our day-to-day activities. I know my kids are cute but that's not it. My kids act up but not real bad or very often, so it's not that either. Maybe I look totally under qualified to be caring for the kids, who knows!

We went to Costco the other day and it seemed that everyone in the Food Court area had a comment for us or just watched up eat our hot dogs. I felt like we were the center of attention and it was a bit unnerving. One person even noticed that we needed more catsup and offered to get it for us. I know the person was just trying to be helpful and I appreciate that.

It is a very odd feeling to know that people are watching you as if you aren't there. Something is so interesting about us and I just don't know what it is. I can truly understand what it must feel like to be in the company of someone famous. At least we don't have the paparazzi trailing us with their cameras too.
