Am I weird or is she?
Story:
We are at this Soda Fountain in Yakima with some friends. It is set up old fashioned like. The girls are enjoying their ice cream and this lady comes in with her husband (both in their 50's) and starts taking pictures of our girls. They are right next to me. At first I am thinking that she is taking a picture of the cute little place, but no... It is of our kids.
So I ask,
Me:What are you taking pictures of?
Lady: Of your beautiful girls! (says all giddy)
Me: Why are you doing that?
Lady: Because they are so cute! (still giddy)
Me: Thanks, but don't that is weird.
Lady: Well if you think it is weird then I won't do that. (still giddy, maybe on something... who knows.)
Me: Yes I think that is really weird, especially since you don't know them.
They walk off... order their ice cream and sit down and take more pictures pointed in the direction of the girls again.
Seriously WOMAN leave our kids alone. I wanted to go over and break her camera.
Needless to say I was in a hurry to leave and if I didn't there would have been a scene.
As my friend, Sara said, "Don't mess with Mama Bear! As a photographer, I would never take a picture of anyone with out them saying it was okay."
I agree, I wouldn't either. Especially of a stranger.
Would you? Am I weird or is she?
I know what I think...
Until next event,
Chels
P.S. All points of view welcome here.

From Grandma-
dear ones...........just read your story and that is weird!!! you hear of things like that being associated with kidnapping.......in my opinion, you should have asked for her name and address, or ID and see how quickly she stopped....be more forceful as far as I am concerned............grandma
