Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Planting Smiles


--by mpghome2, posted Feb 10, 2014
Our elderly neighbor was admiring the Celosia plants we just put in our yard saying she would love to get some for her flower bed. 

Later at the store, when passing the plants, my daughter smiled and suggested we get them for her. 

Today we woke up early, sneaked over, planted them, and left a Smile Card. She was so thrilled when she saw them and immediately started telling us all the ideas she had for paying it forward.
