Now Available At Your Local Market

I went down to Mesa today for yoga and a trip to Whole Foods, Target, and Petsmart. I tried to find an Old Navy but they were all hiding, probably someplace very obvious. My yoga class is right next door to a Sprout Market and I got there with thirty minutes to kill before class started. I needed a water bottle and I wanted to grab some trail mix to munch before class, so I went into Sprouts to wander a bit. I was in the packaged foods area, at the end of an aisle when I heard these little boys on the other side coming toward me and I heard one of them say "the girl over there is PREGNANT" before he popped around the corner and realized I was standing right there. His voice slowly died as they all make a quick turn around and ran away. I took a moment to re-arrange my face so he wouldn't see me laughing at him as I walked by. Later, in the bulk foods area, they went past me again and he pointed me out to his brother. I'm unaware of why little boys would be interested in a pregnant woman, but maybe they've never seen one. Although, I saw about five today so I don't know how you miss it!
