An Act of Kindness
12/18/2013

Years ago, when we were leaving the state fair, my son, who was in third grade, was so excited to have some candy and money in his pocket and a little stuffed animal he had won. We turned the corner and there was a table with people collecting money for a local orphanage. I took out a couple dollars and had my son put the money in the collection basket. We continued on when he suddenly turned around, ran back to the table and gave them his stuffed animal, candy and change from his pocket. It still melts my heart. He is a senior in high school now and will be going for a second time on a mission trip to Mexico where he will work with underprivileged children in a small village - giving up his spring break to help poor children. His heart is inspirational to me!!!
