Wal-mart Adventures

Today at Wal-Mart, I decided to do a couple nice things for others and I definitely got a reward for it.

Number one: A little old lady was looking at these ginormous turkeys that were on sale and trying to move them, look at them, pick them up, etc. So I went over and asked if I could help and so I looked through them with her then put the turkey of her choice into her cart.

God must have been checking up on me at that moment because He rewarded me. He knows me all too well because He blessed me to get behind this:

Yes, camouflage pants, a tye-dye shirt, red shoes, and the whole ensemble was completed with a fanny pack.

Number two: I got in line to check out and this nice guy with only a couple things was behind me. So I was nice once again and said, "You know what? You go ahead of me, you only have a couple things." He was really grateful and because of that nice action, God blessed me again! Yes, this cute little 3-year-old hispanic boy was now behind me in line with his mom and he had a full on mullet. It was even spiky on the top as if they tried to do it, but then the long hair hung down at the bottom. It was quite the sight. I didn't feel right taking a picture of a 3-year-old, especially with his mom nearby. I didn't want to get caught taking a picture either. So I refrained.

God knows just how to make my day.
