29-Day Giving Challenge

When I was a kid, I loved the prizes in gumball machines. My dad, being a thrifty Scotsman, always refused to let me have any of that junk! At the Dollar Store there was a little girl looking at the gumball machine prizes longingly. As I was leaving, I placed a quarter on top of one of the machines and said "There ya go!" Her mom said "What do you say?" (wanting her to say thank you) But I was already out the door! It's a small thing, but something I have always wanted to do.
