Day 296
My son and I were in the elevator at the hospital today, there to visit a relative. A man got in in with us holding a bouquet of flowers in one hand, and in the other, an empty infant car seat. Using my Holmesian powers of deduction, I strongly suspected that he was a new father.
“Did you just have a baby?” I asked, and he replied “Yes” with a huge smile. “Boy or girl?” I followed with, of course. “A boy. His name is Mason.” came the proud response. I offered my congratulations, we got off the elevator and went our separate ways.
In the past I may have kept my speculation to myself, but this project has made me a bit less reserved, and sometimes more bold with strangers. In the year of living kindly, shyness is not a virtue.
That's what makes a day memorable! How wonderful to find out that Mason was born that day... you know I have read this blogging about doing some kind act every day with amazement.. I am definitly paying more attention to life and our human brothers and sisters. Good for you! Wishing you an amazing day with God's blessings. Maggie
