They tried once again...

Once again, my brother and sister-in-law, Doug and Cassie, tried their hardest to overshadow another birthday with one of their own, but this time it didn't happen! Miss Sarah Roberts was born on September 17, 2008 at 12:02 p.m. and weighed in at a hefty 4lbs. and 10 ozs. That's about half the size of our little monster who turns one year old TODAY!!! Haha...missed it by two whole days!

So, welcome to the world Miss Sarah and Happy birthday to my main little man Anthony! I love you both!!

The littlest things....

So today was just as normal as any other day. Around lunch time, I decided that eating would be a good idea, so I headed off to Chic-fil-a (yes the same one that I met my wonderful Brian at!). I ordered my famous #5 with a coke and I ordered a #1 for Ann (my co-worker). I pulled up to the window and the lady told me that 'my friend ahead of me already paid for my lunch'. I explained to her that it must have been a mistake because I didn't know the lady that was ahead of me, but she insisted that she already took care of it.

Random act of kindness. I have done this before a couple of times, but have never been the recipient of one, and I have to say that it is amazing how a small thing like having my lunch paid for by an absolute stranger made my day. So, my reasoning for this blog post is to encourage everyone that the next time your in line at your local fast-food resturant and have an extra $5, go ahead and make someone's day! I promise, they will appreciate it and it'll give you that little warm bubbly feeling inside too!

And, just in case...thank you to the lady in the red land rover who paid for my lunch! It was truly appreciated!

Acts 20:35 ....the Lord Jesus himself said: `It is more blessed to give than to receive.'
