There was only one instance that someone in public did anything other than glare at me judgmentally when my girls acted up in the store. A nice older lady at the grocery store who had finished packing her groceries stayed to entertain my toddler to distract her from her screaming while I packed my groceries. I was so grateful.Jane Doehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11087464056692451751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2571590790949407117.post-65348370003453179722009-02-14T13:13:00.000-06:002009-02-14T13:13:00.000-06:00Awwww I've actually helped harried mothers before ...Awwww I've actually helped harried mothers before having been there 3 times myself lol I know how that feels. One time a very young but tired looking lady with FOUR kids in Walmart had one run off and she was barely keeping ahold of the other three. I chased the kid down (he was probably 2) and brought him back to her. She was practically crying. I felt so sorry for her. I would have helped you shove that wayward leg into the cart for sure ;)♥ Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14591559212770014981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2571590790949407117.post-78796775099384534592009-02-14T12:12:00.000-06:002009-02-14T12:12:00.000-06:00:( I'm sorry.

Some of my 'favorite' memories are being at the Mall of America with the big arse stroller and a mom and her 2 teenagers JUMPED in front of us to get in the elevator. There wasn't room for us at that point. *hugs*Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13534398867537016708noreply@blogger.com
