Things that inspire me...

There are several things that have happened today that have inspired me...

1) Chick-fil-a's amazing customer service!
I went through the drive thru tonight at 8:30 pm and there was a line. Not a big deal. After all, I was the one that was to lazy to walk inside. When I get to the window, they apologize over and over about me having to wait. They then tell me it will be another minute before my nuggets are ready. I say, no problem. They come back and apologize again and give me a coupon for a free chicken sandwich for having to wait. Seriously, I waited like 3.5 minutes. Then they tell me, "It was my pleasure serving you." At 8:30 pm after I am sure they have had a long day, it was still their pleasure to serve me.

2) Massages.
I went to my mailbox at school the other day and found a little yellow envelope. I was curious as to what it was and when I opened it up, I got a real surprise! My sweet husband had dropped off a gift card to Skin Sense for a full body massage plus tip! He had written a note that said, "A little just because..." I had a wonderful massage tonight and I am now super relaxed waiting for him to get home.

3) A student at my school.
We have a new student at school who was at our school last year and then moved away. Over the summer, he had a severe asthma attack which caused a heart attack leaving him brain dead for 15 minutes. He is now back at our school in a wheelchair and relearning everything. This sweet child is relearning to walk, talk, and do everything and he NEVER GIVES UP! I watched in awe today while he was on the playground, holding on to the equipment and wobbling around just trying to walk again. He wouldn't give up and the other kids were there supporting him every step of the way. If this child isn't an inspiration, then I don't know who is!
