Pay It Forward
My daughter turned 5 years old 4/15 2013. She wanted to make people smile. We bought 18 long stem Roses at Safeway. Grace Randomly handed out these roses to who "she" felt could use a smile. The response was more profound than even I expected. 7 people's day changed from horrible days to great ones 11 took pictures with her, 3 cried and came back for hugs, and told her how much it meant to them. One I swear held my daughter for 10 minutes sobbing (she was missing her children that day). One woman (at the coinstar) gave her a HUGE gummy toothless smile and told her she now has faith in our children of today. I gave her $10. She stated "I can now buy meat for dinner to feed my family". I am so proud of her selflessness on her 5th birthday. We need to do this more often. Pay it forward, teach your children!
