Lots of people at the beach stare at us. I usually yell "Stay by Momma," or "DS, come over here by Momma and your SISTER" extra loud and that ends it.
Today, a man kept staring at me and Miss I. perched on my hip. But then I realized that Miss. I. was pulling my bathing suit top sideways, and I thought maybe it isn't always about race.

Heh! You just made my Monday!
Oops! I think you're right - in that case it surely wasn't about race :)
Oh, this is too funny!! Snuggle Bug does this to me all the time, constantly pulling my shirt sideways, threatening to expose me to curious onlookers! :)
