On a call this morning down at Courthouse Pier and this little girl walks up to me. She was about 3/4 holding a teddy bear. I heard her mother tell the little girl to tell me. I turned and asked what I could do for her and she hands me her bear. I tried to give it back but she refused. She looked up at me and said it was to keep me safe. I said thank you while trying to keep my voice from cracking. I put the bear on my passenger seat for her to see. Her mother told me that they have a LEO in the family and she always heard everyone tell him to be safe. What a way to make the day better. I did not get her name but she said they were from Texas.

thank you!
What a touching thing for this little girl to do to remind you that there is concern and support for you from even those you would least expect. During these difficult times, please ‘bear’ that in mind. :-)

“he was only 3/4 of a child? Where’s the rest of her?”
ROFL ROFL I think it meant she was perhaps 3 or 4 ROFL
Thanks. That works. As does the Yahoo link I posted above.
Nice story, btw.
If that is your partner, tell him/her they need to spend time in the gym.
