Happy Friday Everyone!!
I wanted to tell you about what happened to me yesterday when I was at the store. Also, I want to tell you about a site you can check out about kindness. Well, yesterday I went to the store and you have to put a quarter in this box to get the cart and then when u return the basket you get a quarter back. I have a bad knee so I wasn't able to get the basket all the way back up to get my quarter back. I was getting in the car and this lady brought me a quarter and said she put my basket back so here was my quarter. She was very nice to do that and was definitely a random act of kindness. I love it when that happens and I try everyday to look for something I can do for someone. This is a great lesson to do with kids. I used to do it with my students when I was teaching. I would give them a heart ever time I saw them do a Random Act of Kindness. They loved getting them. Something you could do with your child or grandchild.
Check it out . The site has great ideas.

When Comes the Spring

Elizabeth, the cultured young schoolteacher from the East, has braved the western frontier and spent a year teaching in a one room schoolhouse. Now she and Wynn are planning their wedding and their new life together at his outpost in the far north. While Wynn is accustomed to life in the north, Elizabeth is not. Can their love for each other sustain them through a harsh winter, loneliness, and rigors of life without any of the conveniences they're used to?
I love this series and I always thought the pioneer women had a hard life and worked so hard for their husbands and family. How easy we have it. This is good for children to learn what it was like for their great grandparents. Share it with your child or grandchild.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.
