Today I had to go out to the dollar store, to pick up some necessities. That's right, we were out of toilet paper.
Anyway, when I was standing in line there was a man in front of me who was getting several items and he went over the amount of money he had. The cashier, kindly asked him if that was all the money he had, he was over like .81 cents. She said if that is all you are getting I have a dollar. He very humbly thanked her and went out with his groceries.
When she rang up my stuff, I told her that was a nice thing she did.
She said, Well, he comes in here a lot and he's a nice guy.
I have to say, I almost cried. Not surprising if you know me. But it was a sweet touching thing for her to do.
That was a Mr. Lovewell moment.
Last night was our BG's last basketball game of the season. While it has definitely been a busy, and also very challenging season, it was hard to watch it end. Our school didnt' have enough kids to have a JV team so we only had a Varsity team.
Our team consisted of 3 seniors, two juniors, and 9 freshmen. That's right I said NINE. So needless to say it was challenging to say the least. But I have to say that our seniors were the best. They welcomed those freshmen with open arms. My daughter had only good things to say about how kind they were to her. Their parents should be very proud of them. From the beginning of the summer when all the girls went to camp, they always went out of their way to include my baby girl. They gave her support when she was frustrated with the coaches, and they always made her feel like a valuable part of the team. They were not afraid to let her know that when they were freshmen they had the same fears and challenges that she did.
They are just awesome girls! They really are! They are all 3 going to college, one with a basketball scholarship. GO SARA!!! I hope they know how much their kindness meant to a little freshman coming into high school from a different school, knowing NO ONE except her brother.
So for Maria, Crystal, and Sara. Thanks for making my girls freshman year a good one! I hope you all are blessed beyond measure. You deserve it!
