A Simple Wave

By noelani hatton • September 19, 2016

My three-year-old daughter jumped out of her car seat as fast as she could to wave to a local police officer before we headed into Target this evening.

Little did we know how her simple wave and smile changed someone's day.

Officer C. Powell of the Seattle Police Dept.'s Southwest Precinct left her this special present on our windshield.

Officer Powell, you made my daughter's week! Thank you for all that you do!
