Coffee shops really have become tricky. I initially thought coffee shops were great as there wasn't a blaring band and booze involved ..
I think its possible that she did want to know a bit about you .. questions about your son ? Has she met him before? Hell, maybe shes interested in him.
I say just pick out a few questions that you might ask her next time you see her. Rehearse them so they are more comfortable to speak...
Maybe ..
You must get tired of being here all day .. do you enjoy going somewhere else to enjoy your coffee... add in a chuckle here ( I wouldn't take that as a creepy question )

Well it wasn't about my son. It was clearly about me as a father more than anything and I say that because she went from that to "how many kids do you have again?" following up with asking their ages and then mentioning my youngest asking about him too.
The only problem with rehearsal is that I do that. in fact my internal conversation is far more active than real life and what I actually do. I have entire conversations with myself and what I envision another person saying, considering what they will say back and what to do... etc. shoot I could write a book on my internal conversations :P Unfortunately that part isn't the issue XD It's just plain getting idk, something that kicks into gear and makes me take initiative.
