Love in it's purest form.

I have volunteer tmrw...by myself.
T_________T
but...
i like working with the kids
haha.
Yeah, i'm volunteering at the Fringe Theatre Festival.
And yes, i'm working at the Kids Fringe XD
like
when i volunteered yesterday...
i had so much fun.
Because, i was at the arts and crafts station at first, like from 9-11:30 to 12ish
and so
i'm sitting there and like helping kids get set up and stuff
so then comes along this really tiny little guy (not racist, but he's black)
and
HE WAS SO ADORABLE!!
i was like 'do you wanna make something?'
i swear to god he had the cutest voice hahahaa
he was so shy at first and he just nodded and stuff
and like
he was so short he couldn't climb on the bench
so i had to lift him up.
OMG HE WAS SO LIGHT.
like, i'm used to lifting kids that are like 70 pounds and stuff (cuz my cousins are that heavy)
and like
i just prepare to pick him up
and like, i was so shocked at how easily i picked him up
if i didn't stop myself, i probably would've threw him LOLLL
but like, yea, i was so shocked
then i sat him down
and i gave him this glue stick
and like i was giving him stuff to choose from
and soon he started laughing and like picking all these different things
His mom was so happy to see her son smiling :) you could honestly see it in her eyes and facial expression.
i felt so proud. Like... i was making him happy... and i made his mother happy at the same time.
Then i was like thinking
about how a mother's joy would feel like.
Like when i think about a mother's joy, i think about like those lazy sunday afternoons where the mom is playing with their kid in the backyard and like they have cupcakes and play tag and everything.
but like
a mother's love
is love in it's purest form no?
and
happiness stems so easily from it
Like, a mother feels happy just by seeing their child smile or laugh.
Such a simple action can make the biggest difference in a mother's day.
I felt so proud :)
but...
he had to go after a bit :(
i swear to god if i didn't have any self restraint, i would have kidnapped him
lol
BWAHAHAHA ALL MINE!!!
XDD
but, the team leaders would've killed me. XP
around 11:30 to 12ish, the Kids Fringe supervisor came and told me to take a 15 min break before going to the Art project station.
The Art Project station was so cool!!
likee
they give you a big piece of white paper
with like different banners/words around the edges
and you can draw w/e in the middle
but like you gotta use crayons
and so
after you finish
you bring it up to the front desk and they paint over everything with diluted clothing dye.
and like, once it dries. it's amazing.
Because, the paint makes the crayon stand out like a LOT
and it's absolutely gorgeous.
Like, there were these two sisters (so cute, both had blonde hair and like big eyes and chubby cheeks X3) who basically just drew big loops and like... it was basically what we call 'doodling'.
just a bunch of random loops and stuff.
and like...
it wasn't a pretty picture at first or w/e
but once they put the paint on
the colors stood out so much
like
it was the prettiest thing i'd seen all day.
like, i'd look at that over something in the art gallery anyday.
haha...
i guess...
i'm looking forward to tmrw :D
Honestly, i felt so good on Friday... like... to see the parents so happy... i felt the love you know? LOLL
It was so obvious, you could see how much all the kids were loved by their parents.
Makes me so nostalgic... remember the days where i was as young as them :) not a care in the world
haha...
wish i could go back to those days.
