One day, a ten-year-old boy went to an ice cream shop,

sat at a table and asked the waitress,

“How much is an ice-cream cone?”

She said, “seventy-five cents.”

The boy started counting the coins he had in his hand.

Then he asked how much a small cup of ice-cream was.

The waitress impatiently replied, “sixty  five cents.”

The boy said, “I will have the small ice-cream cup.”

He had his ice-cream, paid the bill and left.

When the waitress came to pick up the empty plate,

she was touched. Underneath were ten one-cent coins as tip.

The little boy had consideration for the waitress before he ordered his ice-cream.

He showed sensitivity and caring. He thought of others before himself.
