On the bus raised above the cars on the highway, its often a habit to glance in the cars passing by. Busy working people scrambling to get to work. The soccer mom darting in ttraffic to pick up her kids. The old man blasting oldies in his new car trying to look cool.
This morning I felt it was worth noting the dark blue car full of kids. Four little ones jammed in the backseat of a compact, one sitting up front. Awww maybe she had twins I think, realizing I had already written this mom off to be another 5-kids-having black welfare mama. I admit it was stereotypical and I resented myself for coming to that conclusion. Then as she rolled her car forward I saw a growing bump emerging from her yellow shirt.
Hmmm hope she was car pooling
