This Frozen arrangement has a very nice story behind it. A few weeks ago I was standing in the checkout line at Winco. An older man on the next row over came over toward Natalie and I. He commented on how beautiful she is and that he too used to have red hair.
Then he lifted his hat to reveal a bald head and said, "Though you wouldn't believe it, would you."
With a chuckle and a thank you we both took our attention back to waiting anxiously to check out.
Well after about 30 seconds he came back over and held out his hand to mine and
said, "Here, I want you to have this."
He gave me a folded up $20 bill. I tried to refuse, and say I can't take that.
He just looked at me and said, I want you to take and buy her something special.
Then he quickly turned around and walked away.
My eyes teared up and my heart swelled with gratitude for that moment of kindness.
I took Natalie to Target one day and let her pick out a toy she wanted. I tried to talk her into a princess dress, but she had no desire for that. Instead she loved these little Anna, Elsa, and Olaf figurines. I find them around the house frequently posed in some random places. Anna and Elsa are nearly always staring at each other. She really loves carrying them around and talking about them.
People's kindness is what makes this world a better place. Thank you dear old man, we think of you often and hope we can pay the favor forward to others.
