The girl’s relationship with her favorite delivery driver is surely going to put a lot of smiles on people’s faces. And let’s be honest, we could do with some joy in our lives, with everything that has been happening around us. Ever since it was posted, footage on Twitter from user @mummybear1903 has received close to 24 million views, 57,000 likes, and 8,500 retweets.
A Special Friendship With A Delivery Driver
Anyone living in an area where delivery persons frequent would know that the drivers are generally affectionate towards dogs and children. There are definitely many adorable moments that would make us go ‘Awwww’ involving delivery drivers. But the sweet moment between the little girl Tallulah and this delivery man is sure to bring out a few tears.
In her thread on Twitter, the user spoke about how her little girl and delivery man had developed quite a special bond during the lockdown. Her caption read “We see him one or two times a week…Tallulah drew him a #thankyou… He still has it proudly on show in his van. They have built up quite a friendship over these last few weeks.”
In the ensuing comments, she stated, “They always have their little sign language conversations, so cute. Tallulah’s always asking me, ‘Have you bought anything Mum? Is MY friend coming today?” Here is the Twitter thread:
One of the retweeters wrote something that was on everyone’s minds-

Interestingly, the little girl’s actions with the delivery man have led to him being identified by another user too. They commented:
“He comes to us too, and [our son] Alfie also uses sign language with him. His face lights up when we make the effort to sign to him. Such a lovely man.”

While the video posted by Amy is just a few seconds long, it does remind us to be kind to everyone we come across- just like the little girl.
