Staying Past Our Stop

--by ritprecious, posted Oct 13, 2013

My husband and I were waiting to board a buss when we noticed a woman nearby. She had several bags and a child with her, so my husband and I helped her get on the bus. We carried the bags while she held her baby.

Because she wasn't sure where to get off my husband and I stayed on past our own stop to make sure she got to her destination. We helped her off the bus again, then got a taxi back to our house.

The journey would have been difficult for her because her baby was very restless. We were delighted to be able to help and she was so thankful!
