rak (random act of kindness)

We got Clare's soccer pictures on Saturday. I saw them briefly and then the kids were passing them around looking at them as we walked to the car. Late in the evening hours later I remembered the pics and asked the kids where they were. I went looking in the car and they were not there. I was so mad that they lost them and wondered where they could have gone.

A couple of days later I got a phone call from the photo company saying a lady had found my pictures and called in to find out how to return them to the owner. She gave me her name and #. I called her and she was very nice. She said she found them and knew that some mom was REALLY mad and was happy to have found them and return them to me. She had 4 kids of her own who were now grown and had been through things like this many times.

She offered to meet me at soccer practice the next day and drop them off. So nice!

It totally made my day - for two days. I was glad to be the recipient of such kindness and hope to pay it forward next time I have the opportunity!

 Lexey is on a different team but her jersey is the same color! Funny thing that happened is Alexey's team got the wrong size jersey. They are under 6 and got size medium jerseys (as a compairson Clare's team is under 8 and they got size small)!
