thoughts from a complete stranger ~~~~!!!



we were at the mall me my husband and the kids this was months ago !!! we were looking at jewelry at jc penny .... this older brittle man and his wife came up to me and just started talking away i stood there and talked for about 45 mins to them many stories and just such a sweet couple !!! they were not able to have children and were so interested in ours ... idk but they seemed so sweet ( not creepy as odd as it sounds ) then they wanted my address ???.... to send a card to aspin on his birthday they told me as i had a po box i use out of my town for youtube i didn't think twice and gave them a address i then got his as well to send christmas cards ( they didn't look like they had a lot of money but such a sweet couple ) its been 3 months aspins birthday is in 2 weeks i go to our post office and find a package ... no idea who it came from .. but listed for aspin he opens it up and come to find out it was from the old couple we had met months ago ! with a little note im so glad to send this as we have no grandchildren hope u have a great birthday .... they sent all spiderman items ( as aspen was in all spiderman and was getting a toy that was spiderman when we seen them ) i must say i got a tear in my eye when i seen this ! they sent him a hat a towel socks stickers and a spiderman coloring book inside the note said im sure ur creative just like ur mom .... and that was it .... this is such a sweet thing for a complete stranger that spent 45 mins talking to me ... i feel so thankful to have got the time to talk to them and i als feel blessed to be able to have children ... some get sick of buying their kids things and i always hear parents say u don't need ne more toys ect sometimes its not the toys thats a big deal its the memories and learning they will have and u will keep in your memory of the toy .. this goes to show there are still kind hearted people out there how some things we take for granted and how others cant have what we can and nothing they can do about it ... take this to lesson if u can help someone do it even if its a smile to a comple stranger it may change their life and u may not even know it !!!! i am sending them a picture of aspen ( listed below ) he drew them a thank you card and i will send them something back just for being so sweet and aspen loves to get packages in the mail and this is a memory i will have for a long time so this is for strangers to become friends to some of us who look so different we think we have nothing in common ... give these people a break u may have a lot of stories to share ! be blessed be thankful and spread thankfulness around it will put a smile on someones face for sure ! just my random story i had for today and hope to have contact with this couple again ! xoxox

This brought a tear to my eye too. It is so amazing sometimes when we realize that reaching out to someone who may be hurting and we dont even know it. God always uses us...even when we don't know...it can be in the simplest of ways. God bless that couple and God bless you for taking the time out of your busy day to listen to them.
