There were some memorable quotes from President Biden’s speech in Tulsa, but for two little girls, the memorable moment was just before he spoke.

A lot of people came out to Greenwood hoping to get a moment with President Biden - but only two little girls left with money for ice cream.

The moment came right after the President's introduction when he spotted - surely - the youngest members of the audience. The president left the podium and went over to a woman with two little girls for a brief interaction that briefly confused the crowd.

Back at the podium, the President explained: "I Had to make sure those little girls got some ice cream."

When the girls and their mom, Lisa Madden, emerged from the speech, she explained what happened.

"He came over and handed them something, discreetly and I didn't even see what he handed them and he told them to go get some ice cream," Madden said.

The twins are four and a half, named Nola and Indie. Madden is on the board of the Greenwood Cultural Center, which is why they had a front row seat.

The president said the ice cream was their payment.

"My lord, having to sit through a speech by the president. In my faith we call that purgatory," Biden said.

The girls came out with a plan and headed off down the street, quickly returning with the ice cream - courtesy of the President - that made the day worth it for these two little girls.
