hello ppl,
there are lots of times in our lives when somebody's gestures, words, actions make a difference to u.....
ever felt genuiunely happy and surprised by such?
Here's an example of a small gesture that made me feel good: A couple of weeks ago I was going on a trip. I was staying with a friend and we had to get up at 2.30 a.m. to make it to the airport in time. At 2.45 my phone rang and there was my 11-year-old son who had set his alarm clock to wake him up so he could wake me up in case I had overslept! Such a sweet thing to do!

Isn't that so sweet. He loves you very much. A friend of mine was having few probs. Her hubby was away on business and she was flat out with the kids school things like swimming lessons ect. I arranged a surprise with her mum. While my friend was at school her mum let me in her daughters house. I cleaned it thoroughly. She came home and burst into tears. She was so happy.

Aww, your son sounds adorable. I think that when somebody does something like that for you, you could respond by showing someone else you care and that way there would me a nice butterfly effect, hmm?

Love and affection you share with others creates a sense of care and concern in them towards you.

Oh so sweet ! I am really touched nd got impressed with your son ! These are some unforgettable momements of life which strums your heart's strings to emit some sweet pleasant music ! Wonderful ! I think kids learn these gesture from their surroundings especially from their parents and friends ! Many a kids they normally have their father s their role model ! In conclusion I feel that you also must be very generous, kindhearted, considerate and must be doing such nice gestures for others ! That must have instigated your son to come up with such a nice idea !

Awwww... shows how very much he loves you! You should be proud. And let him know how special that was to you. Sometimes we forget to tell those we love thanks.

Yes small gestures are very important in such a busy and fast life these days. I also think that smile is the best gesture that is so easy to pass and yet one of the most effective one.
