"I'm not sure who this man is and I'm sure he just wanted to eat his meal in peace but Brekken had other plans," Wadford said.

The child soon began to cry and as Wadford went to take Brekken to her car, the man asked to get him. When this happened, Brekken instantly stopped crying.

The kind man and Brekken then sat at the table together and talked while eating chips and salsa.

"Brekken was completely content and told him 'bye' like he had known him his whole life," Wadford said.

"It's the small things... He didn't have to do what he did but completely made Brekken's whole day."

The photo of the meal between the two has garnered nearly 100,000 likes on Facebook.

Many users believe something deeper was going on, perhaps Brekken and the man had known each other in another life.
