Surprise Egg

We went to our City Egg Hunt at 9:00 am ‘sharp’ last Saturday morning. We always go telling the kids not to worry if they get only one egg because it’s always so packed with kids – that way there is no disappointment. They each ended up with a couple of handfuls and had a fun time in the 6.5 seconds it took to clear the lawn. The City had candy and local business freebee coupons in the eggs. The kids were all enjoying their loot when Abby noticed a sad little girl who didn’t even get one egg. Touched by the spirit of compassion, Abby went up to the girl and gave her one of her prizes from her basket. Then she came back and was looking through her stuff again and found an egg she hadn’t noticed before. The prize inside this one was a gift certificate for $25 to open a savings account at a nearby credit union. (As it turns out there were only 2 of the mentioned gift certificates given at this egg hunt, and our Abs got one of them.) We attribute her good fortune to her genuine kindness to others!!
