After a grueling night shift, I took my baby to the laundromat, too exhausted to stay awake as the washer ran. When I woke up, my laundry was folded — and inside the machine were diapers, formula, and a note that read, “For you and your little girl. — S.”
More gifts appeared in the days that followed, each signed by the mysterious “S.” Eventually, I discovered it was Sean — a quiet boy from high school I’d once stood up for. He and his mother had seen me struggling and wanted to return the kindness I’d shown years ago.
His small acts of love reminded me that the goodness you give the world always finds its way back — often when you need it most.
