Caught In The Claws

By leann freedom • October 25, 2025

Frequently we go to a shopping mall with the view of the mighty pacific ocean. A half empty mall that contains many good memories of my childhood.

My son with special needs loves this mall and asks to go here often. I bring him to his favorite place and then go with my little girl to explore the fun shops and kid friendly places that dot the mall.

Our newest favorite is Kawaii Klaws. Lillian the manager made our last adventure there so special.

I only had $10 to buy 10 tokens. Half the Toy claw machines had toys teetering on the edge about to fall down the prize shoot. She had set this up so people could come in and have an easy win!

When we struggled with one machine, Lillian offered to move the toys in a better position to almost guarantee success. My little girl Aida was so excited we won soo many toys.

It absolutely made my day. Lillian was so happy to help, and genuinely enjoyed bringing happiness to kids. It was heartwarming to see how much she was willing to invest for my daughter’s smile. Her type of kindness is truly priceless.
