🧶 Years ago I crocheted a baby blanket that I gifted to a woman I had struck up a conversation with in our local park. She had mentioned that her niece was expecting a baby & she was going to a baby shower being held for her niece & wondered what to bring as her gift. I asked her if she’d like a handmade baby blanket.
When I declined payment she was bewildered…said she & her husband couldn’t believe a “stranger” would do that. I told her the only payment I’d like was for her to pay it forward.
Saw her in the park yesterday for the first time in a few years…she remembered.
People don't forget kindness ❤️
