Last year, I told my family that I didn't want or need anything for my birthday. 1 , I wanted them to think of a way to share a 2 in their world for me. My husband and my daughter did something different, but 3 .
The week of my birthday my husband went to a local cafe and told a waitress that he wanted to 4 pay for the breakfast of a family. The waitress was 5 and said it was her last day at work there and this had never 6 . When the family finished eating, the waitress told them their 7 had been paid. The mom started crying and the dad stood up, trying to 8 who might have done it, but my husband was outside 9 the whole thing. He told me he had such a wonderful 10 in his heart that he would like to do it a few more times.
My daughter was on a 11 budget so she 12 the week smiling more at people, and letting someone go before her at the market. She just took the time during my birthday week to slow down and be 13 and kind to a stranger and her co-workers.
When we finally all got together for Mother's Day and my birthday, everyone was in tears as each person 14 what they had done. As you can see, it was the 15 birthday ever!
