A little minute of joy

Tweet

I meant to post this yesterday. As I left the store a young couple with two very little girls (twins?) Were just ahead of me. They looked to be about 3 at the oldest. Before they reached their car, they all stopped by a gutter. The little girls were doing their best to try to make the very shallow water splash. They even picked up a landscaping rock to drop in the non existent puddle. I will emphasize that they were not in the street, or in any danger, or in anyone's way. Mom let them have a moment or two of play then they went on to get in their car seats and leave. I was impressed that the parents were so chill. No "hurry, hurry", no scolding for being in the water. Just pure fun. It was a thought to make my day.
