Have you done anything KIND today?

Last weekend, my friends and I (we are all teachers) were going absolutely nuts over all the great buys in Target's dollar spot. The Bradfordville store was stocked super well and had tons of great finds for teachers and classrooms. We were sort of loud and over the top (like we usually are) and CB started talked to a random lady. The lady mentioned how her son was starting school, etc. Out of nowhere she pulls two five dollar bills out and hands them to Carrie Beth. One for me and one for her (she didn't know Jenn was with us). She told CB that she LOVED hearing teachers get excited about buying things for their classrooms and students. CB tried to give the money back, but the lady wouldn't take it.

I MEAN. Just ten dollars really changed my life and my outlook on random acts of kindness. As crazy as it seems. Who does nice things like that anymore?

I've been talking about this to everyone that I come in contact with and they reminded me that in the past week I gave away lots of my own supplies to a struggling teacher. I helped an elderly teacher move everything heavy in her classroom, and I helped a brand new teacher fill out some paperwork. BUT, I NEVER just pull cash out and surprise people with it. I would, I just don't think about it. It made me feel so happy though, so I defnintely am going to have to do it sometime.

Do we look excited, surprised, and thankful or what???!!! Oh, and we split the money!
