A woman and her child in the intersection

As Don and I were leaving school on Saturday at 6:00 pm after observing the extensive class (that meets every Saturday, all day, for 16 weeks), we were walking back to the bus station and noticed movement in the intersection of a very busy boulevard that comes together at about 5 points.

A woman and her young daughter were right in the middle of the crosswalk – the mother had a piece of cardboard that she laid down on the pavement, she quickly laid down on her back with her knees up to support her daughter who did somersaults and back flips! The entertaining lasted until the light changed. Then they jumped up, waved to the cars that were stopped in front of them and began walking toward the cars to beg for money.

The little girl seemed to be having a great time and loving it. I was amazed … and concerned.
