Friday when I sat down at the bar, there was a very cute young lady sitting by me. She was snacking, but not drinking. I asked her name and her mom told me. (Sorry, I dont remember her name, or the mothers.) I do remember that she's 5 years old. When I asked her, she made the universal fan of the hand showing me all her waving digits. She was very shy. Every question I asked was answered by a head shake. Her mom told me, "she does not like to speak English because they make her use it in school."
I asked the 5 year old if I could take her picture and got a definitive NO headshake. (mom said it was OK) It was only when it was time for them to leave that she turned to me and gave me a big smile for a photo. (she acknowledged me, gave me permission, and allowed me to take this.)
I hope all the girls at YOUR bar are this cute!
