It is more blessed to give than to receive
We went to the fair recently and saw the sea lion exhibit. These animals are trained to lean their heads in for a picture, so the gang decided to get their picture taken. Lucy was QUITE excited, and afterwards, when the trainer asked Lucy if she would like a kiss from a sea lion, Lucy misunderstood her and, much to everyone's surprise, swung around, wrapped her arms around the sea lion's neck, and kissed him with a loud smack! We all laughed, and when the trainer told one of the sea lions to kiss Lucy, it leaned over and licked her on the cheek! This time Lucy looked surprised and--it must be said--disgusted, and wiped off her cheek with the back of her hand!
