An Andy of Mayberry Episode

And I don't mean that as a bad thing.

I went out to lunch today with some friends and we were distracted by a little boy in the restaurant. Turns out, his mother told us, that it's his 1st birthday today.

It's a small restaurant so you have to pay at the cashier counter and while the woman and boy were waiting in line, they talked to us.

When the two of them got ready to pay, the woman behind the counter informed them that their meal had been paid for by the woman in front of them because it was the little boy's birthday.

Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy...

    "And we didn't even get a chance to thank her."

    (Mom and boy stare down the street as mysterious Samaritan woman drives away.)

    Fade to black. The End.

    Either Mayberry or A Very Special Waltons Christmas

    Not being mean, it is nice to know random kindness still occurs.

    Ha. Ha. ;)

    Actually, it kind of did happen that way. The woman and boy were so busy talking to us that the woman was long gone by the time we all found out.

    We were all speechless and the woman that paid wasn't a regular in the restaurant so there was no way to thank her.
