We all do our best to raise our children the Best we know how and then hope for the Best.... We try to teach them to be responsible adults with good values and a kind heart....
Daughter called last night after getting a Thank You note in the mail from a stranger.... It seems she sold a sweater on E-Bay to a women in California.... Soon after she heard from the women saying she never got the package and in typical fashion these days the women thought daughter took her money and never sent the item... Daughter has been selling on E-Bay for years and has a satisfaction rating of 100%...
Daughter had the tracking number from the post office but she went ahead and refunded the money to the lady and then put in a claim with the P.O.
Enter the Thank you note... From another women in California... It seems the package was mis-delivered by the post office....Oh what a shock I can't believe the Post Office delivered a package to a wrong address....
The note said that the recipient had received a lovely purple St. John knit sweater from daughter's address... She wanted to know who she could thank for this unexpected gift... Daughter looked up her name and address online to discover The women is 93 years old...
The original purchaser was notified that the package went to another address in error.... Last night the women's husband went to pick up the sweater from the other lady.... They promptly re-paid daughter using Pay-Pal....
Feeling bad that the 93 year old women was so kind as to write a letter thanking the Un-known Sender and not wanting her to be disappointed That this lovely "Gift" from a stranger was taken away... Daughter had flowers delivered to her today....
She thought it would make her day.... I was so proud.... Thanks Daughter for having Good Values and a Kind Heart....

That sweet apple didn't fall far from the tree!
Beautiful! What a great example of the importance of parents teaching children good values. Your granddaughter will be the same...
Your daughter is so sweet! She could really be making a difference in that ladies life, you never know what's going on with someone. I know you're so proud and should be!

Sweet story! Kudos to your daughter for her kindness and sensitivity.
You really raised her right then! That was such a nice gesture. I bet the lady loved the flowers.
