Random Act of Kindness: Day Fourteen
Our Mission: Balloon Bouquet
Our Locations: Brrrrberrry Frozen Yogurt and Shoe Carnival
Our Target: A family with little kids
First stop we went to the dollar tree, we purchased several balloons, two of Mrs. Fields chocolate chip cookie dough candy boxes, and a bag of tootsie roll pops, and two small green bags. Elliott found a penny on the floor (we know Grandma is watching us in Heaven ♥ ) We hurried back to the car and made two goodie bags and tied two balloons on each. The boys dropped their homemade kindness cards decorated with balloons and placed them inside the bags. We didn't know where we were going to take them, we had planned to go to a park but it was getting dark. Just then we spotted a group of people going into BrrrBerry Yogurt Shop. We waited until they went into the back to make their yogurt, we dashed in and asked the cashier to give our goodie bag to the little girl in the pink jacket. We ran out of the store. The boys felt like they were on a secret mission. We got in our car and watched from a distance...we saw the surprised look on all their faces when they went to pay for their yogurt. We watched them read the card and the mom made a "wow" gesture to the little girl. The boys really liked that part. Then we were off to IHop to drop off the next goodie bag but just as we were going there we saw a mom with two kids trying on shoes inside Shoe Carnival. We decided this was a good place for a Balloon Bouquet. We again raced in the store like secret ninjas trying to not to get caught. We found an employee and asked her to take our care package to the mom with two kids over in the corner. We quickly ran out the store and barely made it into our car when she gave them the balloon bouquet....the little boy was sitting on the floor with his eyes wide fixated on the balloons and he was smiling. Who doesn't love a little treat and a couple of balloons on a random Wednesday? We hope that we made it an extraordinary day ♥
