Perfect Dresses For Prom Princesses
With two girls graduating from school this year, I was very stressed about the Prom! This senior year ball can easily be the most expensive event of their school lives.
Anticipating the event I started looking around goodwill shops. Every time I saw a dress that might do for a Prom, at a reasonable price, I bought it!
Both girls have their dresses picked out now, but I still had extra dresses! :) So I called the school counselor and asked if she knew any young ladies who might need a dress. She said there were a few. So, I donated the six dresses I had left over and she promised to take it from there.
I will not be able to see the reaction of people who are the recipients of my kindness - but I kinda like that way!
Can you imagine the joy on a young woman's face as she tries on the perfect dress and realizes that, despite her lack of finances, she will look beautiful at her Prom?
And I get to be responsible for six of those moments!

Breakfast With a Tax Refund
When we got our tax refund my husband and I went out to a local restaurant for brunch.
I am a big fan of random acts of kindness and do them whenever I have the opportunity. So, I told my husband (who was fixing to go pay for our meal) to ask the cashier how much an elderly lady's ticket was and to pay it for her. Then when she went to the register to pay, let her know that it had been paid for anonymously.
We left the restraunt before her so I really dont know what her reaction was, but I like to think I helped make someone smile that day!
