The kindness of others

As I stop to think about what this life is really all about I can't help but share this story. When Tyler was in the hospital I would call and check on her and make sure all was well and that Kristy was doing OK... Everyday the cute girls at work would ask how is Tyler, how is she doing today, everyday without fail. One day one of the girls asked me is Tyler's name was spelled the normal way without thinking I said yes, never thinking about again until one morning I was sitting at my desk and and all of a sudden in front of my face was a box with a very happy smile behind it, as Heidi spoke these words to me, remember don't look for the imperfections??? (we had talked about doing projects and how hard we can be on ourselves when they don't look just the way we think they should be) I opened the box and there was the cutest blanket that had been made just for Tyler with her name embroidered on it and a saying Sugar and Spice and everything nice...
I started to cry after I realized why she had asked me about how to spell her name? bless her heart at the MOST busy time of the year she had taken her time and her Aunts time (she did the stitching) to make this blanket for someone that she did not even know. Needless to say she made me stop and think about how everyday we can doing something that will make people smile. There truly is Great people that walk among us.

She grinned from ear to ear, Thanks to all of you that make someones day everyday!
