Raok....
I have no idea who did this, but...when I returned home, someone had left a bag of children's clothing for us. They were the perfect sizes for my youngest 2 little boys. I called around to see who it was b/c I wanted to thank them...but no one knows who it was. Obviously, the mysterious giver knew exactly what we were in need of & the exact sizes...(& I hadn't told anyone). Everything was very appreciated - just wish I knew who to thank

Your post made me smile. Thanks.
The giver was likely just as pleased to give you the clothes as you were to receive them. Giving feels good.
