244: I spoke to my regular cashier at the grocery store. Yes, I go on the day she always works and I will wait in a long line just so we have her as our cashier. She's always very nice to the kids and knows us by name. I had an old coffee card with some money on it to give to her, just to let her know I appreciate customer service people who go above and beyond. It definitely makes groceries much easier to be served by someone nice whom the kids like, and anything that makes grocery shopping easier should be rewarded.
245: I took E to the park today and was talking to another mom. I told her I liked her shirt. She genuinely appreciated the compliment. Compliments are such an easy way to make someone feel better, and so often overlooked.
246: J got off the bus with a nosebleed yesterday and since he recently had surgery on his nose, I'm afraid I wasn't as nice about it as I could have been to the bus driver. I know it wasn't his fault and I don't generally act like a crazy, overprotective mother, so I apologized to him and gave him the medical update. J is fine, he just needs some extra supervision. He had a slight concussion. My apology and explanation were my kindnesses, because these are overlooked as often as compliments. I make sure if I'm wrong, I always apologize and explain.
