Tale 1: “Sorry Honey, Can’t Pick You Up… My Ego’s In The Way!”
After a week-long conference in Singapore, all I wanted was to see my husband Jake at the airport. Instead, he texted to say he was helping Katie from accounting move her couch.
I called his best friend Chris for backup and, while Jake enjoyed his couch-moving adventures, I prepared a romantic dinner for Chris and me. When Jake walked in, he was met with a candlelit table and Chris sipping his special wine.
Jake squirmed through dinner while I praised Chris’s reliability over his “furniture emergency.” The next time Katie needed help, Jake mysteriously became terrified of furniture. Turns out, a little pasta and petty revenge can work wonders!
50 Shades of Granny: A Lingerie Lesson in Humility
My husband Rob had been saving for a vintage Mustang, which meant I was stuck wearing boring cotton underwear. Then I discovered a group chat where he’d shared a photo of my “granny panties” for laughs.
Instead of sulking, I involved his mother, who took me shopping for a designer dress that cost his car fund. I surprised Rob at home, flaunting my new look and sending a selfie to his friends. Now, his “car fund” is officially the “Happy Wife Fund,” and I framed my granny panties as a reminder!
The Day My Man Flu Became My Mother-in-Law’s Boot Camp
While I was bedridden with the flu, my husband Pete hosted a Super Bowl party in our bedroom. When he asked me to grab snacks, I called his mom, Eleanor.
She arrived like a whirlwind, turning our home into a military operation. While I relaxed, Pete and his friends deep-cleaned everything. Now, every time I sniffle, Pete turns into a caring nurse, proving that a mother-in-law’s intervention can fix “selective caretaking syndrome.”
My 30th Birthday Surprise
I hinted for weeks about my upcoming 30th birthday, but Pete ditched me for a concert with his co-worker Emma. Instead of being upset, I snagged backstage passes and performed onstage, calling out Pete for celebrating with another woman.
The crowd loved it, and now Pete treats my birthday like a national holiday. Emma? She’s mysteriously developed a dislike for concerts.

A girl waves to the train that passes by every day. Three years later, the train driver sees a poster on the window
When was the last time you showed kindness to an unknown individual?Even if you believe that this is a pointless question and that you shouldn’t bother trying to help someone you don’t even know, keep in mind that doing good is always worthwhile.Behaving kindly toward others, even complete strangers you see on a daily basis, has a greater positive impact on their life than you may realize.Furthermore, you never know who among those total strangers will stick around and end up playing a significant role in your life.The tale, shared on the Facebook page *Love What Matters* by Briana Hefley Shepard, describes the peculiar bond that developed between a small girl named Rio and the train conductors who were eagerly awaiting her greeting from their enormous window.Your heart will melt at this story.Ensure that you finish reading the story.About three years ago, our company relocated to the new site.Because of its proximity to the railroad lines, we have a front-row seat to observe all the locomotive activity.The workers quickly noticed Rio extending a greeting to them, and they returned the kind.
They made it into a ritual over time.They let out a whistle, she hurried to the window, they opened their windows, and all of them grinned broadly.Almost every time, I would cry. Then Rio began attending school a few weeks ago.I was impacted by her daycare adjustment a bit more than I had anticipated, but more on the first day when the train passed and she wasn’t present.They opened their windows and whistled, but I was the only one crying and hesitantly waving.Next day, I created a placard.All I wrote was, “She started school.”When I heard the whistle, I hurried to the window and waved my placard.That was three weeks ago. “Oh, I shed a tear.”
Someone knocked on the door this morning, nearly minutes after I entered the store.It was a dude with earbuds hanging down who was wearing a bright yellow t-shirt.Because that’s what we do here, I assumed it was a construction worker who wanted to discuss construction-related topics.I was in error. He had come to inquire about the blonde girl who was greeting the trains.Everyone was curious about her whereabouts as she was an employee.They stopped higher up the tracks, came to our building, and knocked on our door because they had a short train today.Oh, I did cry.Despite having seen my placard, they were unable to read what it said.
Though they had to double check, they had believed she had started school.Her greetings, he added, brightened their day.For three years, they had shared these times together. They miss her and want to do something for her.When they inquired about sending her something, I answered, “Of course!”In a few weeks, they will send her a birthday present.Throughout the past few years, it has been nothing short of miraculous to see their unusual bond.I feel optimism and love knowing that they have been impacted just as much as we have.My faith in mankind and goodness has been reinforced by their presence today and their ongoing generosity to Rio.These are the times we shall never forget.
