For many kids, a trip to the grocery store can be fun and exciting.

This man was checking out at the store when she noticed a family shopping nearby.

Both parents commended how well their kid was behaving, so they offered him a simple reward.

Both of them told the kid not to mention it to the other parent.

The boy’s excitement grew as he ended up with two surprises instead of one.

Read the full story below that will warm your heart.

“Don’t tell your dad” – I watched a little boy win at life today.

I was the customer in line at the checkout.

The cashier was ringing me out when a family (mom, dad, and a ~7 year old boy) pulled up behind me.

Dad immediately wandered away.

While mom started loading her groceries on the conveyor belt.

This man witnessed the conversation between the mom and the kid.

After she loaded a few things, she turned to the boy and said:

“You were really good today. Would you like to pick out a chocolate?”

The boy got super happy, grabbed a Kinder Egg, and put it on the conveyor belt.

Mom then tells him, “Don’t tell your dad.”

The boy’s dad asked the same thing.

Dad comes back, and mom says she forgot something.

So dad continues loading the belt while mom walks away.

Dad then turns to his son and says:

“You were really good today. Would you like to pick out a chocolate?”

I have never in my life seen a kid look so happy.

The boy picked another chocolate egg, and he didn’t say a thing.

He picks another Kinder Egg and puts it on the belt.

Sure enough, dad then says, “Don’t tell your mom.”

I didn’t say anything to ruin this kid’s wonderful two-chocolate day.

But I had a good chuckle walking out of there.
