Friday evening I went to Canadian Tire with my baby to pick up a wagon for Christmas. The box was huge and I struggled a bit, until I gave up and went to find some help. A man and his teenage son were in the same aisle as me and must have noticed me give up. As I was waiting in line to get some help from an employee, the young man came up to me and asked if I needed help lugging the box to the front. It was totally unexpected and appreciated, even though I assured you we were fine. Good job Dad (and I'm sure Mom) on raising a perfect gentleman! Keep it up, I hope one day my son will grow up to be as thoughtful as you!

A big thank you and merry Christmas to the amazing human being who returned my wallet to the customer service at walmart on Dougall today! Words cannot express my gratitude! You have restored my faith in humanity as there are truly good people left in this city! Thank you so much and I wish you a merry Christmas and so much more! Much love and thanks!

We posted a story last week about gifts being stolen from a local dance school. Within an hour of the story being posted we got a message. It was a Windsorite (Omar) asking if I could reach out to the original poster and collect details of the gifts taken so he can try and replace them. I sent the email and got the details. A few hours later the presents were dropped off just in time for the kids missing gifts to open them. Below was the picture with the smiles the gifts brought these kids. Thank you Omar Nizam for your wonderful act of kindness within the city.

On Friday afternoon while I was in the lobby of the LCBO at the Roundhouse the security/ traffic man had come in to warm up for a bit. The traffic was really busy plus it was very windy, not just cold. This kind woman came in from a van and gave this man a hot coffee. I heard her say that her husband had said that they should go pick up a coffee for this traffic guy....he must be freezing. The traffic guy was very thankful and it was wonderful to see something so simple and kind happen right in front of me! I now have an idea of where I could do that for someone. So nice couple you have been spotted!

Many thanks to the wonderful woman in the grey Ford Focus who bought my breakfast at McDonalds on Walker this morning. Your simple act of kindness goes far beyond the value of my coffee. I've quit drinking alcohol recently and and an incredible side effect of my sobriety has been recognizing the importance of exercising kindness at all costs. As a result, my eyes have opened up to the seemingly inconsequential gestures of kindness that go unnoticed every single day. Thank you, Grey Focus Lady for inspiring me to continue to fight the good fight. Love rules all. Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Thursday at the spitfires game my mom lost her wedding rings and didn't realize it until she got home. They have been married 61 years. They called the WFCU on friday morning and low and behold one of the janitors turned them in. You have no idea how happy you made my parents. To the gentleman who found them I would like to say thank you and Merry Christmas. It is wonderful to hear that there is still honest people in our city.

To the woman at 7:15am on Dec. 18th in the white car at the Tim Hortons on Tecumseh W across from University Mall... Thank you for paying for my coffee this morning. I was having a rough morning and you honestly made my day with your kind gesture. I gave you a few little honks to thank you, but wasn't sure if you heard. :) Merry Christmas!!

Driving my almost empty school bus home on Lesperence rd. In Tecumseh I witnessed an elderly woman's walker getting away from her at an intersection due to the high winds. She had just walked a ways to get her mail from her community mailbox. The wind had carried her walker and blew her mail amongst the nearby lawns around the neighborhood. The last 3 students left on my bus quickly responded and asked if they could get off the bus to help her. I opened the door of the bus and the three quickly went to work helping the elderly woman and ran to catch all her flying mail. They were back on the bus within moments and the woman was on her way safely home....a brick holding down her mail . So proud to have such great kids from St Anne's high on my bus. Merry Christmas...pay it forward.
