Random Act of Kindness

I've been meaning to post this for a couple of days and just haven't. Here goes.

On the 4th of July we had one heck of a monsoon "breeze" blow through here. Of course it would be the day after the corn fields behind our house were plowed down. We literally had 6 inches (at least) of corn husks and other debris on our front porch. I didn't know it was there until my brother-in-law picked up our flag (which had been completely ripped off the front of the house) and brought it up to the door at almost 10:00pm. The next day was N and my anniversary and we weren't home pretty much the whole day so it didn't get picked up. Then, it was Sunday--not exactly a Sabbath appropriate activity. Well, Monday morning the kids and I got all ready to go outside and clean it up. We went out the garage and turned the corner to the front door. H was in the lead and stopped dead in her tracks and said, "Huh?" I turned the corner and saw that our porch had been completely swept clean. Our first guess was the Clarks, but Tiffin denies having anything to do with it. We have no idea who did it or when they did it, but it was greatly appreciated.

Now to find some way to pay it forward.
