My four-year-old broke her scooter today and was absolutely heartbroken. About ten minutes later, a woman from the playground came back with a scooter (not brand new, but in really good condition) and gave it to us. She smiled benevolently and explained that they had two at home, so one had just been gathering dust. I offered to pay for it, but she wouldn’t hear of it. I’m still blown away. Even though I’d do the same for someone else, it’s a whole different feeling when you’re the one on the receiving end of that kind of random kindness from a complete stranger.
