Happy Birthday!
My six-year-old wanted ice cream for her birthday, with a notary and UPS Store stop along the way. At both, strangers wished her happy birthday and she ate it up, gliding out with a polite "thank you." Who knew running errands could be so impactful?
It isn't my birthday though.
My six year old daughter wanted to be taken out for ice cream for her birthday. On the way to Culver's I had to get a document notarized and then hand it off to the UPS Store. There's no "just going out for ice cream."
The Notary Lady
The notary pointed to the pot of candy and asked if she could offer some to my daughter. I explained that it was her birthday and that we were on our way out for ice cream, so I had already told her "no candy". The lady turned her attention to my daughter, and asked her how old she was and eventually wished her a happy birthday, as did several other patrons in the store. She just "ate up" the whole experience, politely told everyone "thank you" and glided out of the store.
