A Surprise Gift


While at the beach this past week Tamey came down for some time on the sand with a long line of children in tow. (And I mean long, seven of them!) When she walked into the house my eyes caught sight of a colorful bag on her shoulder. "Your bag is great, where did you get it?" Tamey's reply, "a garage sale." Well, that is a garage sale I want to go to!

After a fun visit Tamey and the kids headed out. Following the goodbyes, my brother and I were walking back to the house when I noticed he had the bag on his shoulder. He passed it to me. "Here, it's yours."

That is Tamey. Besides being thrilled with the unexpected gift I was touched by the spontaneous act of generosity.

Certainly made me stop and think...
