Entertaining Angels in Transit

I am probably more likely to entertain strangers when on the road than I am at work or at home. While traveling on a plane, a train, or a bus, one of my favorite positions is the seat behind a baby over six months. At that age, the child can explore his setting and discover rather quickly that he can see someone through the crack between his mother’s seat and the person next to him. He is also usually capable of grasping the mysterious game of peek-a-boo. I can fill up plenty of my ride peeking around and over the seats at a child who giggles. The Cherubim may not be roly-poly infants, as some painters have depicted them, but such infants are definitely angels.
