Charlotte Thompson had picked up the children early, and of course, they were excited about heading to the commercial street soon.
On the way, the children hummed songs newly taught at the kindergarten, clearly delighted.
As for the shopping list they had prepared earlier, it had been forgotten at home due to Hank Thompson's haste while packing his school bag in the morning.
This was a case of plans not keeping up with changes.
After much thought, the children had no choice but to go with the method of buying whatever they saw and fancied.
Initially, Charlotte wanted to carry Grace Thompson throughout because of her health, but Grace soon refused to be carried.
"What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
Since Grace struggled to get down, Charlotte put her on the ground.
The other children also stopped and gathered around Grace with concern.
But Grace shook her head, stepped forward, took Charlotte's arm, and gently started massaging it.
