precious

tiffany and i heard the most precious conversation today.
we were eating out and were sitting in a booth across from a couple and their young daughter, she was perhaps 3 or 4, no older.
mom: honey, would you like some noodles??!
daughter: YAH I LOVE NOODLES MOMMY
mom: okay, sweetie, you can have noodles.
the dad returns from the buffet
the mom leaves to get her food
daughter: HI DADDY I LOVE YOU
dad: aw i love you too, silly goose.
daughter: you brought me pizza? i LOVE pizza.
dad: sure did sweetie, get some and put it on your plate.
daughter: okay, thanks so much daddy.
dad: you're welcome sweetheart.
daughter: i need some spoon!
dad: what about a fork? you can use your hands if you want.
daughter: okay daddy! will do. thank you.

i was melting in my seat.
it sounded scripted.
those kinds of moments allow me to be encouraged to have kids.
