They exist!

Today, I was in line at Caribou Coffee.   Punky was talking with “Gwandma” on my iPhone while I was ordering.  (I ordered Kelly a white chocolate mocha, Punky a Passion Fruit Green Tea Smoothie, and myself a skim carmel latte.)  My total came to $13 something.   I pulled up to the window to pay…handed the cashier my checkcard, and she grinned…

“Actually the lady in front of you paid for your order too!”

Wow!

I was shocked!

Random acts of kindness.

They exist.

***In hindsight, I should have paid for the car behind me, but I was so stunned, I couldn’t do anything but smile!  So, thank you to the blue SUV in front of me at the Champlin Caribou Coffee this morning!   You made my day!
