A gift while walking in the woods.

A woman and man are walking towards me. With them is a boy, about 4 or 5 years old. The boy spots me and walks right towards me. He asks if I want an acorn. I say yes, that I have been looking for one all day. He hands me one, pauses, and says "Here take them all." He roots around in his pants pockets and hands me 5 more. As he turns to catch up with the 2 adults he is with he says "Those are to feed the squirrels." I start to walk away with the 6 acorns and realize they are still warm from his pockets.
