We were in San Franciso (on Thursday) for the day. Both Sam and Livia were doing so well, considering we were out and about for so long. We went out to dinner with Jared, Allyson and Brigham. All of a sudden, Livia decided that she was done with San Francisco. She cried and screamed uncontrollably. We tried to console her... but nothing seemed to help. We felt bad for the other people, so Jason and I kept taking turns taking her outside to help her calm down. Every time we came back in, she would start all over again. And Sam, well, he decided he needed to go to the bathroom... about 3 or 4 times. Our food came. Our food got cold. Between the two of us, we were in and out of our seats, snatching bites as we could. Brigham also was a little tired and had a few meltdowns. So pretty much everyone in the restaurant knew we were there.When it came time to pay our bill, the waitress brought our bill and showed us a receipt. A couple that had been in the same area as us earlier had felt sorry for us that we couldn't even sit down and enjoy our meal. So they paid $50 towards our bill.
When the waitress told us that, I was so touched that I almost cried. I was so embarrassed that my child was disrupting everyone else, yet a couple was understanding and sympathetic to our situation.
It is so nice to know that there are generous and kind people out there... even in San Francisco.

That's actually a reason why we liked living there... the people are actually really kind and nice! San Francisco can have a bad reputation, but there are tons of great people there!
Why were you there?
Oh, how nice! I want to be like that someday!
What a wonderful story!
First of all, that is so awesome. I am so grateful for good people. I hope to be more like that.
Second of all, who makes a trip to San Fransisco for the DAY? I hope you had a blast. :)
