Guy at the grocery store

I go to this grocery store a lot. And my son interacts with one of the cashiers that’s over the self checkout. He always asks him what his name badge is and just tries his best to talk to him (he has a speech delay and he’s 3). The guy is always so nice and carries on conversations with him. Today, he told me that my son always brightens his day. I think the guy is cute but I think I messed up. I froze up and completely had no idea how to respond except with “I’m glad” and I tried to smile with my eyes because I had a mask on. He didn’t say bye as he usually does, so I’m wondering if he misunderstood me or not heard me. I overthink so much and have social anxiety too. So maybe I’m overthinking it?

If I knew the guys name and knew I wouldn’t come off as a creep I’d message him on fb and explain although I am still unsure of what I would even say. 😂😅
