Stories of Kindness from Around the World

The Baby-Bump Chats


--by AnaMacario, posted Sep 24, 2014
Today I had some errands to do. I went to the bank, to the pharmacy, to the grocery store ... Every place I went I surprised myself by talking to the workers and even other customers. So, I did my good deed by talking to strangers.

But, I'm cheating a bit! 

It's not me who makes the conversations happen. My baby-bump does all that work for me! I am always happy to talk about my baby and everyone has their stories - either of their children, them as parents, or how they imagine they would be as parents - to share. Everyone seems to have advice and sweet wishes to offer. So, shopping takes a lot longer than you might think but I tell myself that all that good feelings go right to my baby. 

Somehow, it is like she is already being cherish by all those people even though she hasn't been born yet.
