Rudeness disguised as helpfullness
Today Bekah was running a slight fever but didn't seem to be really sick so we went ahead and went out and about. Well bad mommy award. While driving she got sick. We happened to be about 1/2 block from a Wal-mart. Right place right time. So we pulled in and took her inside to get some clean clothes, wipes and get cleaned up. While we were rapidly walking around the CHILDREN's area with her in the cart discussing getting a blanket for her car seat or getting a new car seat (we sorta want an extra car seat for DH's car anyway), this woman says "you do know she's thrown up?" To which I replied, "Yeah we are getting things to get her cleaned up and taken care of" The lady rather rudely says, "looks to me like you are just shopping" Now mind you this whole time I am checking on Bekah and quietly talking to her and making sure she's ok. Some people just don't know when to mind their own business. Goodness. Bekah ended up getting sick 2 more times today. yeah I think it's official she don't feel so hot.

Jeez...just ignore people like her; You said it perfectly, "Some people just don't know when to mind their own business."
Reminds me of when my two were little; it always amazed me how perfect strangers would all of the sudden just start giving me all of their "helpful advice," about my children, as if they knew them personally.
My son was the funniest....he would just stare at them, without speaking, with his mouth kind of half open (he was probably a year and 1/2), and no matter what this "kind soul" would say to him, he wouldn't change his facial expression at all. It was hysterically funny! :)
