11/21 Took kids to the park in front of a mountain (that's the name of the park). Thay played and played. Sky climed to the top of the multi-level slide with my assist but she couldn't make up her mind to slide for a long time. There was a boy at the top of the slide who also was hesitating to slide. His mom yelling the boy. He gives up and climed down the ladder and his mom was furious. He walked away in tears and sat by the flowers. I sat near him with Sky and spoke a few words to him to comfort him. Sea took us to the bridge on the pond where there are many kois. Sky and I went back to make sure the boy was OK. Sky followed soon after and Sea and Sky started playing in the sand pit. He was in the sand pit w/ his mon and lil sista. His mom still murmuring to him. At one point the boy started crying so I jumped in to the sand pit and sat by Sea and Sky where it was also near them. I did not say anything. I just listened and tried to make them notice I was listening. The mother kept askng the boy why he didn't slide. The boy told the mother he was feeling cold and the mother said she told him to wear a jacket. Then they left. The boy helped the mother pick up the shovels and buckets. They washed hands and the mother handed the boy a hand towel then a bottle of tea. They walked away. Sea met her friend from kindergarden at last and she seemed so happy. 05:03
