ness Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 I did track down her dad. I had to tell him this story. He sat in his office and cried like a baby. Wow! Nice. What goes around comes around. She touched you and you touched him. Both of you needed that. Then there is you passing it all on to us. Again well done, BilletHead ^This John
GloryDaze Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Hope her dad wasn't the "business" type... that would have been ironic. Justin Spencer 1 Follow me on Twitter @DazeGlory

Members Grumpy53 Posted March 26, 2015 Members Posted March 26, 2015 I work for a semi truck dealership in Kansas City as a delivery driver. I got back yesterday and went to turn in the paperwork for the day. As I walked past the parts counter I noticed a cute little girl. I stopped and asked why she was crying, she did not want to talk to me. I asked her if she had a Piggy Bank at home? She would not answer my, Dad was next to he and watching /listening and he said Yes. I dug out a dollar bill and give it to her, got a smile from her then. I waked past about 5 minutes later, she had stpped crying by now. I asked Dad if she could have a can of pop. He said she would like it. So I tok her by the hand and we wengt to the pop machine. I put the money in and she pushed the button before I could ask what she wanted, MOUNTAIN DEW is what she wanted. She grabbed the change, 15 cents and kept it. She smiled and said "Thank you mister". We went back to Dad and she gave me a hug and said "Thank you"again with a big smile. I have no idea why she was crying but I just wanted her to have something to maybe make her day a little bit better. I am not college educated. I retired from construction several years ago and little kids pull at my heart big time. They didn't ask to be brought into this world or the for the circumstances in which they are living in, good or bad. Thank you again, Fry, for a darn excellent read. Bless you and you family. I normally don't tell anyone about things like this but you, Flysmallie, told a tear jerking story that makes me think that there is good people out there. That they do care about the future of our country and human beings. I am no better than the other guy. I have an older boat there serves me well, wife and kids that are the best things in my life. They are what I lve for and love with all my heart. ness 1
ness Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Nice, nice, nice Grumpy!!!! Give more, take less, expect nothing, and you're heading towards what's really important in life.. John
Flysmallie Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 Thank you so much for doing that and letting us all know. That just shows it only takes a few minutes and maybe a couple of bucks to make a kids day. Can't do that with adults. Thanks Grumpy. You made my day.
Flysmallie Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 PS- There are good people out there and you are one of them.
fishinwrench Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Earlier my 5y/o slung water all over the floor and dumped out a 1/2 bottle of cream rinse just for kicks. She is currently balling and stomping around because it's bedtime, and has lied about brushing her teeth. If one of you gives her a Mountain dew (or a $5 bill) I'll kick you square in the nads.

Flysmallie Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 If I was closer I'd give her a 12 pack and a twenty. ness 1
