A Random Act of Kindness in Market Street

Dear Market Street:

My 3 year old was asleep in the front-carrier and my 6 year old was riding in the shopping cart this afternoon in your Colleyville store when a very nice employee approached and informed me that my 3 year old was missing a shoe. 

As the little one was strapped to my front, I hadn't seen the little red Crock drop.  He offered to find it for me.  I didn't know where it had dropped, so I thanked him but told him no, that I'd backtrack and find it later.  I didn't want to take him away from his work.

Ten minutes later he approached me again in another part of the store - and he was carrying my son's shoe!  I was shocked. This man had searched for the shoe (possibly into the parking lot), then searched for me.  He said  "you literally have your hands full. I couldn't NOT help."  

This man made my day.  Inexplicably, tears pricked my eyes.  I felt like giving him a big kiss on the cheek but restrained myself and instead shook his hand and thanked him.

I also shared the story with the store manager as I left the store.  One can't let random acts of kindness go unacknowledged.

Thank you for hiring such great people.  I'll definitely shop again.
