On Wednesday afternoon, around 3:30, I was outside Devonshire Mall, by Tim Hortons, sitting on a bench with my headphones on, listening to music to pass the time waiting for my husband. An older lady sat down beside me, and she and her 8 year old grandson were playing "soccer" with a small fooz soccer ball. I took off my headphones, as this was more entertaining than listening to music, and the young man asked me if I'd like to join, so I said sure! He was very polite, and stopping the game when there were people walking by. He also asked if I'd like to be his friend, and I said sure, and introduced myself to him and his grandma, he shook my hand. His mom came by with a snack for him, so he sat down with grandma and I, and mentioned to his grandma that he was thirsty, so I offered him my unopened water I had with me, he was very appreciatave and thanked me without being prompted to.

When my husband came to pick me up, Jordan (my new young friend), opened the car door for me, and gave me a hug goodbye.

If his mom or grandma Shannon is reading this, you've raised a VERY well mannered young man, you should be commended!
