Little, simple things : )

Simple things in life make me happy...
hugs from the dogs
kisses from my husband
yogurt
bagels
clean socks

but today - I got to experience some other little, simple things that are delightful. Let me share:

If you haven't been to our house yet - I will have to explain that our back yard is fenced in, but to get from the side door to the fence you go down the side steps and walk about 5 feet. No big deal - for humans - but for dogs, those 5 feet can mean one easy distraction and they are off running. So we always have to walk them back there by their collars. But this morning, I thought I'd let Moses try it on his own {he has had some success in the past with this} but this time, I noticed {right as he wen tout the door} a man on a bicycle going by.... One of Moses' biggest distractions..... So calmly I said "Moses, just go to the backyard please" after pausing a second, he glanced at me, wagged his tail and happily pranced to the backyard : ) WHAT A GOOD BOY MOSES!!!!

Also today....

I ran some errands today, ending at Costco {my favorite place!} and as I was loading my purchases into the wagon I shut the back end then promptly heard: "Don't forget the dog food!" I turned to see a nice, late 40's man reach down and grab this 40lbs bag of dog food and put it in the car for me!! Then he even proceeded to take my cart for me!! What a nice man!! I felt so blessed by his small act of kindness : )

So now you share - have you experienced a random act of kindness recently? If not, I hope your heart was warmed by this story - and pass on the favor. I look forward to my next opportunity to help make someones day a tad bit better : )

Hopefully I'll get to report back soon!

Have a wonderfully blessed Monday night,

Love,
~Karin : )
