Jessie and I spent a good chunk of time in Oakland Mills over the weekend (but that is another story). Part
of that time were hanging out and doing some work in the back patio space at Fire Rock Grill (sweeeeet). Along come a family traveling the path behind the patio fence and we hear the sound of glass breaking.
Our ears perk up, and out as it as it were.
Jessie jumped up to investigate. One of the little boys dropped a glass bottle and it shattered across the path. In her best communication style (a recent graduate from the Celebrating Men/Satisfying Women workshop) did a fabulous job of engaging with youngster, who was scared and confused as his mother kept walking and Jessie was calling his attention back to the shattered glass. Not making him wrong, Jessie appealed to boy to be a hero next time for the safety of others and do what he could to get the glass cleaned up.
As the boy went running to his mother; our friendly and attentive server, Katie, at Fire Rock wasted no time in getting broom and swiftly swept up the glass.
