Imagine falling down the stairs and waking up from a comma 21 days later. Imagine finding out the doctors cut part of your brain out because it swelled up. Imagine finding out you can't walk, or talk, or even eat on your own. Imagine learning the baby steps all over again at the age of 21.
I met a man like this, a couple of days ago. Not knowing what he has been through, my daughter kept herasing him at a restaurant we were at. She was playing video games with him, she even told him he is naughty and he needs a time out. The funny part about all this was he had so much fun with her.
After his table was done eating they got their coats and left. About 5 minutes later this man came back in the restaurant and walked right up to me and told me " Aniya made his day". Then he proceeded in telling me what he has been through and what he has accomplished. He said he hasn't laughed like that in a long time.
This makes a mother very proud of her child.
Has anyone else had this experience?

Your daughter was that outgoing with the man and wasn't afraid at all? That's kind of impressive!

It always bring a smile how small children dont judge and how no fear about new people. If only everyone had that!

Small children don't really judge but they will tell you what they are thinking.
