The Kindness of Others

I wanted to share something with all of you that really touched my life. For the past few years, we have enjoyed dining at our local O'Charley's restaurant. The food is wonderful, the service top-notch and best of all, kids eat free. When you have a lot of little ones to feed, this is a very important quality. The manager at O'Charley's is Reggie. She has become a very dear friend to our family. If she heard we were celebrating a birthday or special event, she always makes sure to bring out a wonderful dessert at the end of our meal.

She has often asked us about our adoption of Tessa. We recently told her we were adopting again. She was really excited for us. We also explained to her about our fundraising efforts. We mentioned the adoption bracelets that we have been selling. She asked that we bring her some to sell. Well, tonight when we stopped by for dinner, she was glad to take the bag of bracelets and start selling. Before we left the restaurant she had sold 4 bracelets. She was talking about it to all of her employees. What an amazing lady!!! I am so excited for our daughter to read these posts and hear of the kindness that has been shown to us.

By the way, we are also selling the bracelets on ebay.

Thanks Reggie!!
