Sweet gestures
Daddy got to come home early today due to the weather. He was home early enough to take me to breakfast. So I bundled up as best I could and went out in this crazy weather! No fear though...not with Daddy...he has a massively big truck and is a pro at driving in this weather.
We went and picked up a few things at our storage, then the store and then we headed for breakfast! I was starving....and ready to cozy up in the booth next to Daddy. As we are pulling into the parking lot we see a homeless man making his way across the street. Now mind you it’s 15 degrees out and the snow is blowing hard....and this man barely has a light jacket.
We get into the restaurant and see the homeless man sitting in the waiting area. He’s minding his own business just trying to warm up. We pass and get seated to our table. Daddy leaves as I am getting situated...I thought he went to the restroom. He returns and the waitress comes and greets us...and then the manager comes by and gives Daddy an update on his request....which what I thought was a trip to the restroom was actually Daddy telling the manager to let that man order what he wished and to send him the bill.
I thought that was the sweetest thing I had seen in a while. I was so proud to be sitting there with my Daddy at that moment (I always am...but this made me just a little more proud).
I looked at him with admiration and he says we are all just one step away from his situation...so we should be kind. I just love this man so much...my heart melts for him.
I can’t wait to spend another holiday season with this amazing man...
Until tomorrow....
