Strangers can be nice

So I took the kids to Friendly's Ice Cream the other day while everyone else was in Boston setting Josh and Kevin up in their new place. It was a crazy day and I didn't feel like taking the kids downtown when I knew they would take forever to finish the bunkbeds late and dinner would run long, I had no desire to sit with three kids and try and make them happy while all that went on. So we stayed at my house and as a treat I took the kids out for a treat.

So we went out and got all settled. It was a nice meal, the kids were great and we had fun...the kids ate well and really I don't think we had any real issues. After we were done with our meal, everyone got their own ice cream. It was really way too much ice cream for us all, and I got boxes...yes I took the ice cream home, I am cheap...ok maybe not but I really didn't want to throw any of our leftovers away...so when she came back with our boxes I asked about our check. She said we didn't have one, someone in the restaurant had bought our dinner, and they left so I have no idea who they are...sometimes people just amaze me....Thank you who ever you are you definitely made me smile, I was feeling low and that really picked me up for the rest of the day.

Pass on the kindness...go strangers!!!
