My son says I have one of those faces…You know, the kind that say, “Tell me your story.”
And my son apparently finds this mildly amusing. After all, he frequently laughs and remarks, “Mom, I don’t have time to grab a coffee with you today. You know someone always waylays you with a story.”
Personally, I think he exaggerates just a tad. However, I do distinctly remember one woman and her tale.
Since the summer’s day dawned humid and hot, I offered to take my then thirteen-year-old son and his best friend to the local water park.
Fortunately for me, despite the crowds, a deeply sun tanned woman compassionately offered a seat at her table.
Gratefully, I accepted her offer. After all, she explained that she would soon return home to walk her dogs.
