Would You Ever Pay It Forward?

Not sure if it’s actually a pay-it-forward story, but….

My parents were eating at a moderate, chain restaurant and the couple in the next booth were having trouble getting their baby to settle down. My mom said she could tell they could use some “down time,” and so she said, “oh what a cute baby….can I hold her for a while?”

My mom entertained the baby, fed her the bottle, and gave the parents a little time to enjoy their meal. Then they handed the baby back, and went back to eating.

The couple got up to leave, thanked my mom, and left. My parents finished their meal, and when they asked for the check, they were told….

…”the couple at the next table paid your bill.”
Nice story. Next
