A cool way to get cookies

While I had the demo chair this weekend I decided to go to the local sub shop to get something to eat.

There was a dad at a table with two young sons who were 4 and 6 years old or so. I pulled up to pay for my sub and accidentally jarred the counter, causing two cookies from the display to fall right into my lap.

The younger boy said "Wow! Did you see what she can do in her wheelchair? Look, Dad, she has a cool way to get cookies."

Meanwhile the teen cashier, not missing a beat, asked "Do you want those too?"

I looked up at the sign. $1.25 a piece. Then I looked over at the kids, staring at the cookies. Priceless. "Sure," I said.

As I rolled past their table on the way out, I asked their dad quietly "Can they have these cookies?"

"Sure, thanks!" he said.

I kept rolling toward the door to leave.

Behind me one of the boys said "And she delivers too!"
