Smaller Gestures

Today as I left my place for work, a small child, probably a year old, came running up to me and said "Uncle flower", placing a small flower that she may have plucked from the garden, in my hand. I couldn't help but smile and marvel at this gesture of this child. Not only did this child suceed in bringing a smile on my face, but it brightened up what could be decribed as a normal, mundane and sleepy morning. I know the flower may not make it through the day, leave alone a couple of hours, but this gesture is going to be embedded in my mind for eternity.I will always remember this small but mighty gesture of this child who brightened my day with a little flower.
