The Christmas spirit is alive and well!

That is sweet! God bless you both!

Wow, how wonderful. I have often thought I'd do that for someone once I got my finances under control, because I know how it would make me feel (both if I had received a gift from a stranger like that and it would make me feel AWESOME to be able to make someone else's day like that)

When I was a kid still and was short some money to buy something the person behind me paid the difference so I could still get it.

It really makes my heart feel good hearing stories like this. With all of the recent ones about theft and such, it really, really lifts my spirits. It's about time we hear some good news!

That's beautiful! My daughter, Amy Beth, witnessed something similar yesterday. A young handicapped mother was buying cookies for her 3 small children. As she got her change back from the salesperson, she dropped it all over the floor. Amy Beth and her MIL helped her pick it all up, and someone in line behind her bought slushy drinks for all of her kids!!!
It's not much, but I did give to 2 different homeless men on the street corners here. They were both so very appreciative and wished ME a Merry Christmas. No matter how bad we have it some times, there is always someone out there hurting even worse than you are!
