Some times I do... This time I didn't

Standing in the check out. All to much money later my order was complete. Would you like to donate a dollar to such in such to help such in such? Don't get me wrong I donate sometimes but everybody asks so there does have to be limits to it if you are a bit tight as well. So any way 3 kids later, 3 hours from home I . Just . Want . To . Leave . I kindly responded no not this time. Handing her my card to pay for my purchases we hear "I will!" This little boy is standing there digging all the money to his name out of his pocket. He hands the lady all the change he has. Yes, that little boy is my son! I couldn't be prouder such a sweet and generous little man! With tears in my eyes and tear filled eyes all around us I add my donation as well to the order. In that moment I remembered to stop screaming, stop being busy, stressed, and worried and slow down and cherish my children and what a blessing they are to me and others!  ... But then we had to get in the car ;)
