But that only feeds the flames. And she's getting louder. The whole restaurant is quiet. And just watching this woman on her knees, half standing like in a booth.

I physically kind of reached to block her hands from her purse because she wants to pull out a onesie that we had bought for her that says, what happens at grandma's house stays at grandma's house.

So she loads up, leaves. And that was a pivotal moment in our relationship with her where we're like, OK, maybe we're not going to do this anymore. Maybe this isn't worth all of the extra effort.
