Today I was at the local mall and was walking past the clothing section in WalMart where a father and his two cildren were browsing. The little boy, about 4, snapped his fingers and pointed at me (a 17 year old girl) and said, “Hey cutie-pie” with a little bat of the eye. Little boys who can make big girls smile GMH!

A few days ago I was stressed out about a big competition I had that day. I was wearing a dress. I saw an adorable little girl who looked like she was about 3. She pulled on the leg of her mom’s pants, pointed at me, and said, “look mommy, it’s a princess!” I don’t think I’ve ever smiled so much in my life. KGMH
