Today's bus ride was actually pretty cute at first. This father and daughter got on the bus. They are regulars and I have seen them often. The little girl is just adorable-dressed all in pink with pink rain boots! She looks at her dad and says, "Daddy I love you". [Insert melting heart]. The dad replies with the appropriate "I love you too". Without missing a beat, the little girl goes "Can I have some candy?". Now, I know when a little girl knows how to work her father and can spot it from a mile away (I may have a little experience in that :) ) The dad says that when they get off the bus she can have some candy and with the biggest eyes and sweetest voice the little girl goes "but I love you Daddy" That is a pro right there and that father is in for some serious trouble!! I am sure my dad can attest to that! :)
As I am enjoying this adorable moment, it is quickly ruined by some nasty person on the bus (the gender is unclear to me at this point) who turns to the little girl and asks "is that your daddy?" No dumb ass, the guy's name is Daddy and the girl was just addressing him by his first name. The girl is legitimately scared of this he/she and retreats into her dad's coat. Good work he/she...way to scare a child!! The he/she kept trying to spark a conversation with this girl...umm, creeptastic! I am glad that even a 5 year old can spot the weirdos...when you live in downtown Seattle, it's a much needed trait!
