Acts of Kindness week, in honor of Lucas Michael (@aragosta)

missnacholover · September 2014

As many of you know, one of our beloved bumpies' (@aragosta) son, Lucas Michael, was born sleeping on 9.23.13. In his honor, please perform a random act of kindness this week and post about it here so our @aragosta can see how the memory of her beautiful son has helped brighten people's lives.

I just left Chick Fil A and paid for the lady's breakfast who was behind me in the drive thru line. She's celebrating baby Lucas now!! :x

I brought cupcakes into work this morning to celebrate baby Lucas. It's like a little birthday party in the office for him today.

This wasn't my official RAK for him, but rather one of a few this week.

I let my coworker go ahead of me in the lunchroom for microwave use. A small RAK, I want to do something small every day this week.

I anonymously donated money to pay for a friend's dog to have surgery done. She's a new mom and really struggling with finances, but the surgery couldn't wait. I had been trying to think of what I would do for Lucas, so when this popped up, it just seemed right and meant to be.

Had a nice ugly cry for you this morning and then pulled myself together and went and had breakfast paying for the guy behind me. BIG HUGS today! I love that so many people are thinking of your family today and this week.

I didn't really get in a RAK yesterday. We were supposed to have a meeting at Starbucks and I was going to buy the person behind me coffee, but alas, meeting was cancelled. I did volunteer to help pick up the slack on another work project that I'm not involved in.

I sent two fellow bumpies some surprises from their registries.

I just hope they don't think I'm a stalker

Since Sunday I have been on the lookout for the right person. This morning I found him!

I was giving the cabbie directions on which way I wanted to go to work and he proceeds to tell me it's his first week driving. He took on a second job because his wife is due with their 4th child (she's due next month)! As we drove through Central Park I learned that he's a paramedic and will now be driving cabs during his days off. I also learned that his wife is a nurse; they met at work (I told him how Greys Anatomy that was of them!) He said it was love at first sight and after 4 dates he proposed! Today is their 15th wedding anniversary! At the end of my ride when I tried to hand him money for his new baby he didn't want to accept it and I said it was in honor of a friend of mine who lost her son and then he says "I just lost my dad two months ago" and he shows me the screen saver on his phone and he starts tearing up telling me he died of cancer. I insisted that he take the money and got out of the cab. I never got his name but I know that he was the one that was meant to be blessed in honor of Lucas!

Long Story Short... I tipped my cab driver $100 today in honor of Lucas

**cue ugly cry. You are amazing. That is such a beautiful story. I can just imagine that he'll be overjoyed in telling his children about you.

My RAK today was putting an extra dollar in someone's parking meter as it had run out and the parking attendant was out ticketing. I don't think it quite compares to tipping $100, but I thought of Lucas while doing it

It's always the thought that counts!!!!

I just bought a coworker some candy because he's having a tough day (and I didn't even ask for a piece!). Some sweets in honor of sweetie Lucas!
