So Strange...

Today on my ride into SF on BART, a woman offered me her seat. I think it's because she noticed that I'm pregnant, but I don't look very pregnant (to people who don't know me), so I was a bit surprised. I thought, "Oh maybe she's getting off at the next stop anyway." But no, she stayed on (standing) for at least another few stops...maybe even all the way into the City. I also had kind of a lot of junk to carry--laptop bag, lunch bag, and my big ol' Granny purse--and all she had was a dainty purse and her newspaper. But still.

How nice that was. To have someone else offer you a seat on a crowded commuter train. That old saying about the kindness of strangers came true for me today. I guess maybe I'll get that a lot more, especially as I get bigger and bigger!
