You forgot something.

Today, my taxi directed me to a clinic on the far south side.  There, I picked up a girl in her late teens and a young boy in his upper threes, maybe as old as four.  I couldn't tell if she was just a young mother or maybe the boy's sister.  They never said anything to give away their familial status

All of these stories remind me of the book The Five People You Meet in Heaven. Very inspiring as a (fledgling) writer.

Thanks for sharing :)

AWH! When I was riding the bus out to catsit on City View there was this adorable little boy who got on the bus (#6) at MATC for three or four stops and gave the bus driver a high-five when he got on and off. It made my day. And you know how I feel about little kids!

I love how he was so matter-of-fact about it, as if it was such an obvious thing! how could you forget it! I love the way little kids think :) sooo adorable. Thanks for this story.

Aw, I love high fives - a fellow after my own heart! How sweet. For some reason, when I read this the first time, I read it has he was in his mid-thirties, not threes. :P
