Today I invited one of my daughter's friends over for Sunday dinner. This is usually a time just for our family, when we sit around the table, sharing food and stories . I am actually a little selfish with this time- I don't often invite others to join us. This Sunday, however, was different. My daughter's friend really loves to eat with us, so I made it a special dinner, using my best china and my favorite corn casserole recipe. The conversation around the table was lively and fun, enhanced by our guest. It was heart-warming to serve my family and my daughter's friend, as well as to listen to their laughter. Our spirits were fed, as well as our stomachs!

His little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love." - William Wordsworth
