I was really proud of my guy (again) this weekend. We’d gone to the circus and were sitting in traffic waiting to get out of the parking lot. I saw a grandmother and a little boy crisscross our path for the third time and I commented, “Looks like they’re lost.”
Travis waited a moment, I guess watching what we’d do, and then asked in surprise, “Well, aren’t we going to help them?”
I LOVED that his first instinct was that we should be out helping. He’s watched enough times when we’ve tried to help people (or critters), and I was so glad he thinks that’s just what you do.
We explained to him that these people, looking for their car in a huge parking lot, weren’t the kind of lost people we could really help. But we made sure he knew how much we appreciated the impulse.
