Making Strangers Smile

At the grocery store today. Declan sits in the cart but he really wants to run around. We were in a very slow checkout line and had lots of groceries so we let Daddy take care of it and I got Declan out of the cart. We were planning in burgers for dinner and I remembered Daddy likes bacon on his burgers but we don't have any at home. So Declan and I walked all the way to the other side of the store to grab a box of bacon. Declan carried it all the way back to Daddy. The entire time he was giggling and running. I kept stopping him from running into people or their carts. Now and then he'd yell "Daddy". Everyone we passed would sign "awwwe" or say "how cute" but he didn't notice and just kept running to bring Daddy his bacon box. He was so proud of himself and so happy. While we waited for Daddy to pay a lady we'd passed came up to me and said the "he was such a happy boy and seeing him has made her day". 

Awwwe Declan, it's not just Mommy and Daddy who's hearts you melt.
