He stopped, turned and got the biggest smile on his face. We talked for a few minutes and then he told me i was the first person to speak to him in a very long time. He said he is 72 years old and that people just pass him by. He thanked me for being kind. Wow, a random act of kindness when i didn't even know it was happening! peace...BrendaBrenda Smoakhttp://www.artandalchemy2.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-91460680114829828442010-04-23T12:59:27.407-04:002010-04-23T12:59:27.407-04:00I love the random act of kindness thing!

So, I will do my parental and civic duty by slaving for the teacher. Also bringing ice cream for the studious, hardworking, third grade SOL test takers because let me tell you all....that is some HARD WORK! And by bringing a large latte and pastry for a patient, hardworking, caring, sprinting, multitasking teaher. If I do win, I will probably give it to said teacher.....because what piddly little bit I do is nothing and I do mean nothing, compared to what this teacher does....3/4 of her class has ADHD and one autistic child. This is a regular third grade class.Kim Barlowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05336354478282815101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-67723264636061803452010-04-17T16:19:19.554-04:002010-04-17T16:19:19.554-04:00Courtney, that is absolutely FABULOUS!

Last night I read your blog and I couldn't fall asleep because I was trying to think of a great random act of kindness to do for a stranger. I'd like to write a blog about my experience, tell our readers about you & include the download to your Scribd download if that's ok with you! See how I used them here!! http://bit.ly/afIZEJ Hope you're having a fabulous birthday, thank you again for reminding me how joyous it is to give. . .Courtneyhttp://www.meylah.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-11562854345527070542010-04-16T23:56:09.738-04:002010-04-16T23:56:09.738-04:00I found you from Holly's tickled pink!

My act of kindness is telling my (12 y/o) daughter how proud I am of her for toughing out school this week--she has been having friend issues--I was really pleased with her good attitude. My other daughter also got lots of praise for getting an a+ on a math test! WOot. Both got a present too.Louriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05477223472789865063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-81839833360347710172010-04-16T23:41:55.894-04:002010-04-16T23:41:55.894-04:00I subscribe!

You can read about HER random act of kindness here: http://smallsteps2giantleaps.blogspot.com/2010/04/reunion-of-sorts.html And to honor her kindness and to celebrate YOUR birthday, Michelle, I will make sure I tell at least one person each day this week what they mean to me and how grateful I am to have them in my life. AND, if you don't mind (I know you won't), I'm borrowing this idea for my birthday in June. Thank you.

It hasn't been the best year for her (I'll leave out the details as its her family and story to tell.) but out other friends and I have planned her the BEST birthday bash ever its a 1950's Prom theme and she doesn't even know! It doesn't happen until April 16 around 5ish (its still a surprise) but if you head over to my blog you can see all our ideas and the final product after that! <br /><br />-Vanessa<br /><br />P.S. <br />I find this idea AMAZING! and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!Vanessamaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13816402014766655606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-53669412520841092092010-04-16T02:20:45.202-04:002010-04-16T02:20:45.202-04:00i'm already a follower...but i did post about ...i'm already a follower...but i did post about you on FB!<br /><br />http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=home#!/photo.php?pid=1157346&id=1093447572michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15500190538913265130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-7796050715391212042010-04-15T19:21:42.233-04:002010-04-15T19:21:42.233-04:00Hands. down. you rock m....I am wicked excited abo...Hands. down. you rock m....I am wicked excited about getting to spend your bday with you & ALL the other FAB peeps joining in - doing AMAZING things... :) <br /><br />Happy Birthday (early)sweets!!<br />XOXO<br />~lynzUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11772502501063781279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-43684232831002285222010-04-15T12:42:31.917-04:002010-04-15T12:42:31.917-04:00okay so i had to enter! ha! if i happen to be the ...okay so i had to enter! ha! if i happen to be the lucky winner you can give the earrings away. and for a rak, i brought muffins to my son's peds for his one year check up--it was totally out of my comfort zone to do something 'mommish' like that, but it was fun and they loved them (or pretended to) :)Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15184536619509769380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-568446000623056293.post-16616693306523424622010-04-15T09:38:01.568-04:002010-04-15T09:38:01.568-04:00Hey, Michelle.
