　　As I walked closer to the man, I turned my back．Suddenly, Erik leaned over my arms, reaching with both arms in a baby’s “pick-me-up” position．Before I could stop him, Erik had escaped from my arms to the man’s．At the moment a very old smelly man and a very young baby developed a kind of friendship．

　　Erik, in the act of total trust and love, laid his tiny head upon the man’s shoulder．The man closed his eyes, and I saw tears under his lashes．His aged hands were full of pain and hard labor, but he held my baby so gently．A moment later, the old man opened his eyes, passed me my baby and said, “God bless you, madam．You’ve given me the most precious gift．”
