Order Line

Tuesday, July 13th 2010

Back at my favorite fast food Mexican restaurant for lunch, I found myself waiting in line behind a woman holding a baby girl. The baby was probably near 1 year old. I'm not an expert on guessing ages of children by any means, but this is my best guess.

The little girl was facing me from within her mother's arms as we moved closer and closer to the front of the order line. She kept staring at me and I kept on smiling and waiving to her which was making her start to laugh. A laughing baby is probably the cutest sight & sound in the world, do you agree?

I think she was intrigued by my thick-framed glasses. I don't usually tell strangers how cute or adorable their children are, but I felt comfortable enough to say "She's really cute" to the mother who was-by now- wondering what I was doing behind her to make her child stare and laugh so much. I think the mom was pretty happy.

Then I picked up a napkin off the sidewalk on my way out. This place is going to want me coming back everyday if I keep cleaning up their parking lot after I buy their tacos!

Peace :)
