Kindness and our Pizza Place

"One who is kind is sympathetic and gentle with others.  He is considerate of others' feelings and courteous in his behavior.  He has a helpful nature.  Kindness pardons others' weaknesses and faults.  Kindness is extended to all - to the aged and the young, to animals, to those low of station as well as the high."
~ Ezra Taft Benson

On a recent evening, I met two of my favorite mom friends at our local pizza place for dinner with our children.  As usual, we talked and talked.  At the end of the evening, the manager of the pizzeria came to our table and apologetically told us that they had been closed for nearly half an hour.  "You all were having so much fun that I felt badly telling you," he said.  That kindness is one of several reasons that we love the place.
