The cutest thing in the world happened to me today. Just out of the blue, a random happenstance. As I was exiting the Psychology building on campus, I had to find the button to get out of the underground garage. The garage door opener didn't have a manual button though, so I didn't know how to do it. I was looking around, and all the sudden a mother and her three children walk by, also looking for the exit. So i decide to help them find a side door, instead of trying to find the garage door button. I finally locate an old, super heavy door by which we might escape outside.
I'm propping open the door so she can get through (it's a really heavy door and she's carrying a baby, dragging a toddler, and corralling a little four-year old). She tells the toddler girl to say thank you (which she manages from underneath her mop of strawberry blond hair) As the tiny four year old toe headed boy walks past me, he holds u one of those little spiky balls that fall off of trees in the spring, holds it up to me, clenched tightly in his adorable, grubby little fist. Then he scrunches up his face in a warrior's fierce grimace, and yells ferociously and loudly:
"I have a pinecone!" like it was absolutely the most important thing in the world.
I started cracking up so hard, I couldn't speak. Then I managed to say to him, very enthusiastically, "YEAH, you do!" The mom was also cracking up, and hearing us laugh, her baby started giggling, too. The little boy didn't understand why we were laughing at him, and I think he was a little miffed that we weren't properly intimidated or impressed with his pine cone.
