So, I saw something weird at the park the other day.

This is a community park with a nature walk along a canal which is semi-secluded from the actual field and picnic bohios. So we're walking the dogs and my hubby looks ahead and says, "Oh, look it's a bridal shoot." And I look up and immediately notice that the woman posing for the photograph was not wearing white. It was more like a beige tule cape with bling flower pieces sewn into it. So, I say, no, it's not a bridal shoot.

I glance up at the person occasionally as we approach, trying to make sense of the photo shoot with my limited vision because I'm not wearing my glasses. First, I thought the person was wearing tan colored leotards. Then I remember thinking, those are abnormally skinny legs for the rest of the body. And then another glance and I thought, those aren't leotards. It's nothing at all. Just beige colored skin, and the rest of the body looked disproportionate because this person is at least eight months pregnant.

My mind is working quickly, trying to determine if this is something that needed intervention, because guys, unless this girl was wearing a thong, she was naked under that cape. I quickly determined that the older couple that was there with her for the shoot looked just like her, so I assumed it was a family thing. So I just kept on walking and did not disturb them.

Now, i know that women these days are more than happy to photograph their baby bumps, but was this a case of taking this to an excessive range, because it was a park and we're talking about an eight month pregnant woman who looked naked under a cape?
