OK SO THIS IS A LITTLE HARDER THAN I ANTICIPATED. PARTLY BECAUSE THROUGH THE WEEK WE DON'T GET OUT MUCH. I SLEPT UNTIL NOON YESTERDAY, HAD A FEW HOURS TO BE A MOM THEN LEFT FOR WORK AT 3:30. SO I DECIDED STOP AT THE PLAINFIELD STARBUCKS. COURSE I GOT MY USUALLY GRANDE COFFEE FRAPPACINO LIGHT WITH WHIP AND A SCOOP OF PROTEIN. I DECIDED THAT IF A CAR PULLED UP BEHIND ME I WOULD PICK UP THEIR BILL. I WAS SCARED.....NO-ONE BEHIND ME THEN FINALLY A CAR AND THE LADY PLACED HER ORDER. SO NERVOUSLY AS I GOT TO THE WINDOW I SAID I WOULD LIKE TO PAY FOR MINE AND THE CAR BEHIND ME. THE STARBUCKS LADY LOOKED PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! I TOLD HER I AM TRYING TO GO OUT OF MY WAY TO DO ACTS OF KINDNESS. SHE INFORMED ME THE WOMEN HAD ORDERED A LG TEA AND AN OATMEAL COOKIE. SO I PAYED FOR IT WITH MINE AND SPED OFF. I WANTED MORE THAN ANYTHING TO DISAPPEAR. BEING SUPER NICE I GUESS CAN MAKE YOU FEEL EMBARRASSED
MISSION 2 COMPLETED....BOUGHT A LG TEA AND OATMEAL COOKIE FOR A COMPLETE STRANGER @ STARBUCKS
2 DOWN AND 22 TO GO..................................
OK IT'S NIGHT NIGHT TIME FOR ME. IT'S 8 AM AND MOM'S HERE WITH THE GIRLS UNTIL 12:30
ENJOY YOUR DAY!!!

Good job! Say, will you be going to Starbucks anytime on Friday? Your dad and I will be out shopping and we'd love to be behind you! Seriously, I think you'll find that this goal will be extremely rewarding. Perhaps the strangers that are the recipients of your kindness, will have their faith in mankind restored and it could possibly prompt them to "pay it forward". Just think, if everyone was exceedingly kind to someone else, and that person was kind to another, and . . . . You get the drift. I'm proud to be your mom. Love you.
