There was a young teenage couple there with their son. The baby ended up having a massive poop and pooed right through his sleeper. The dad said, "Do you have a spare outfit" and the poor mother did not. The dad got mad and she seemed so upset. The baby still hadn't even had his procedure and I was looking at them feeling so sad and then remembered...I had an extra outfit in my diaper bag! I took it out and took it over to them. I said, "I have experienced the poo without an extra outfit! You can have this one! Don't worry, I don't need it!" They were so surprised, and Jack was done with his procedure so I was able to just leave. I can't wait for my next act of kindness!Stacy Kayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01811174192833645494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-43631285545363791572010-08-04T02:46:12.874-04:002010-08-04T02:46:12.874-04:00This blog is awesome!!! thanks for sharing your ex...This blog is awesome!!! thanks for sharing your experiences with us!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-83274870101296688762010-07-19T17:08:22.203-04:002010-07-19T17:08:22.203-04:00I just found your blog and this post made me cry. ...I just found your blog and this post made me cry.

...I LOVE THIS POST!<br />I love random acts of kindness!<br />My family has bought dinner anonomously a few times for fellow diners, the last one was a serviceman dining by himself at cracker barrell. And let me tell you something Moms-I don't think there are many other lessons you can teach your children that have this much of an impact on them. My girls and I made home made cards last week to brighten people's day, saying "You are Important" and "You are loved" but we didn't sign them, and mailed or secretly delivered. My kids love doing this! yOu have inspired me to do more! thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-33236511779405113822010-04-21T14:45:56.029-04:002010-04-21T14:45:56.029-04:00This is such an inspiring post.

Besides this, I want to reply to the woman who mowed the neighbor's yard, that perhaps we should all do these acts of kindness not judging situations or people, but out of the grace in our hearts. We can never fully know others' situations inside and out.Jellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09988158250488221291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-22769297950138083932010-04-21T08:57:00.776-04:002010-04-21T08:57:00.776-04:00WOW!

Before even reading your post, I had just gotten off the phone with a lady from my kids school...who is organizing meals to take to a teacher who is undergoing chemo right now. I volunteered to provide as many meals as they possibly need! On Saturday I went to a garage sale that was put on by a church. It was a fundraiser for a missions trip. I bought a few little things, but then I asked if it would be ok to donate extra to go towards the mission. It felt so good! I sent a random text to a friend who I know has been really "going through it"....telling her how when I saw her the other day that I thought she looked absolutely beautiful! This friend of mine lost her 21 year old daughter just a year ago due to suicide. The last year has been hard, but the last month has been really hard. A few weeks ago on the anniversary of what would have been her daughters birthday, I sent her flowers with a card that said, "In honor of the life that your beautiful daughter lived". Doing RAOK is the best medicine! Thanks for inspiring so many people! I only hope I remember this idea on my next birthday a year from now!Janellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10173809877842734770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-38750613145421547322010-04-20T09:37:35.490-04:002010-04-20T09:37:35.490-04:00One year for lent, in addition to giving something...One year for lent, in addition to giving something up, we practiced random acts of kindness.
