The baby had his bottle out of the carriage, and started to cry. The line kept moving to board the boat which had at the dock, and there was just enough for my dad and me to board. At that moment I ducked (moved like a duck) the chain, picked up the bottle and ran with it to the mother. At this point, my father had out of line to see where I was to. The mother me, and I walked back to my dad. He saw what I did and gave me a hug, then regretfully said that we had the boat and it would be a long for the next one. I looked at the boats, then the line, and finally at my dad with a big and suggested we get ice cream instead.
I learned that day that nothing feels better than doing something good for someone else. No matter how small or it may be.
