Kindness
Henry James said, “Three things in human life are important: The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind.”
Last night, a friend came by to bequeath his childhood Tonka truck to Tin. When we told him we were adopting a little boy, he instantly took an interest in Tin’s life. He was the first to make sure Tin had a Saints warm up suit (very handy for Superbowl 2010). And later, he thought about his perfectly kept forty plus year old Tonka Stump Jumper that his daddy had oiled so it would not rust, and he knew it had Tin’s name all over it. With kindness like this, Tin’s world grows richer and richer.
