Kindness Day

I didn't realize Medicine Hat had this annual event until now.  It's called "Random Acts of Kindness Day" (rakdaymh.com) and is supposed to encourage communities to be kind and complete random acts of kindness throughout the day to unsuspecting citizens. In return, you're asked to "pay it forward" and pass the kindness along to someone else.  It was such a fun day!

We planned on going to one of the firehalls and delivering coffee and cookies to the staff there.  After that, we boarded a city bus and rode it around for over an hour and handed out more cookies and some bus passes to the riders. The kids had a great time and learned all about how fun it is to be kind.  I had to explain to Griffin that it is important we be kind everyday... just extra kind on kindness day.  He promptly asked me "if tomorrow is rudeness day?" haha.

Here are some pics from the day.
