HOME

Last night Mr. Darcy when out in the shadowy, chilled night to retrieve the trashcans from the curb.  Somehow, as if by a small voice inside him, he noticed by the light of the street lamp a transparent plastic bag with a card and rock in it.  When he brought it inside and and pulled the card out we found this:

Even more curious we opened the card.

That’s right! Holiday cheer spread from our trash man, what an unexpected source of holiday cheer.  How thoughtful of him and think of all the families that were smiling after they headed out to the mundane task of bringing in the trashcan.

The kids and I are already planning how we can give a card to him on his next pick-up day.  I hope we’re not the only ones.
