Excuse Me, There's Still Something In My Eye

Random acts of kindness don't get much more random than this. A little girl lost her teddy bear, which she cuddles in lieu of her father (who is fighting overseas) and through a chain of remarkable events it is actually returned.

Two days ago, the family was driving back to Sedro-Woolley along I-90. Justice got sick and alongside the road, in the chaos, the bear got left behind.

When the family got home, Justice's mother realized "Daddy Bear" was nowhere to be found. Christa Wadsworth tells us, "We searched the bedrooms, we called the friend we were staying with. We cried and cried."

The next day Justice's grandma posted about the lost bear on Facebook. The Washington Department of Transportation then put out a tweet saying a bear had been lost near Elk Heights along I-90. Two workers decided to go looking.

The two men actually found the bear, and drove after hours on a work night to surprise the little girl with  the stuffed animal. The family was of course incredibly grateful, and I'm sure they had to have been surprised at the sweetness of two strangers. That is good stuff.
