A new campaign...

That's right.

In this season of voting- with everyone posting yesterday about how they voted, etc... I have started a new campaign.

It is my "Smile at children when their parents aren't watching" campaign!

:D

So far- I have had quite a lot of successes.

My favorite was this morning. I was on the bus when I noticed a little 5 yr old girl with a pink hat and purple snow suit (properly all bedazzled and mummy wrapped with a scarf, of course) staring at me. She was adorable... and her mom was looking away from me.
So I flashed her a tiny smile.
SHE SMILED BACK!
Then. Well, then my friends, I quickly looked all around me and noted that my fellow passengers were either a) paying their bus fare b)staring blankly out at the grey sky or c)looking at the muddy bus floor.
So I gave her a full, crazy-person, smile with teeth and everything.

And she GAVE ME A FULL SMILE WITH TEETH AND EVERYTHING back!!!!

So- vote for me and my subversive campaign, my friends...

Maybe, in about 10 years, that little girl will become a young woman who will also smile at a child on a bus... and so pass the cycle of smiling on. Cause goodness knows, this city needs some smiles!! Vote for change!
