STORIES OF KINDNESS |
We welcome any stories you may have about the Kindness Bug. Please email stories to: |
| 12-06-07: 3-000327 - Lola the Ladybug - Brandy Simonsen - Topeka, KS - Act of kindness shown to me - Vicky showed the greatest act of friendship to me by allowing me to stay with her during my relocation. I am blessed to havy Vicky in my life. She's the best roommate I have ever had! Act of kindness shown to Vicky- I carried several boxes of books upstairs because her back had been bothering her. |
| 12-06-07: 7-000067 - Emily the Dragonfly - Brandy Simonsen - Topeka, KS Act of kindness shown to Gregory: I love Gregory and am giving him this opportunity to show see how many people's lives he can touch through his own kindness and the importance of passing Emily on her way. |
| 12-11-07: 1-000431 - Marcus the Monarch - My name is Deanna of Shawnee, KS. I am giving this bug to my sister-in-law Courtney as a Christmas present. She is the only sister I've ever had and she is truly amazing. She has always been there for me when I needed someone to listen or answer thousands of random questions in preparation for my wedding. I couldn't think of a better person to give this to! |
| 12-11-07: 3-000358 - Lola the Ladybug - My name is Deanna of Shawnee, KS. I am giving this bug to my school secretary, Judy as part of her Secret Pal present for Christmas. She is a true blessing and to simply call her a secretary is an incredible understatement as I see her act as nurse, counselor, principal, teacher, wife, mom, proud grandma and of course a friend. Nothing says welcome better than her warm smile and heart that greets us all as we walk through our school doors. |
| 12-13-07: 1-000486 - Marcus the Monarch - Jennifer - Shawnee, Kansas - Babysat a 2-year-old while his mom hosted a birthday party for the big brother |

The kind person's name is Gerrie Boehne and she lives in Browerville, MN. She shares kindness always with her infectious smile and giggles that light up the world for the lucky people in her life. She passed Lola on to her cousin. |

12-23-03: 1-00498 - Sandra L. Rose - KC MO - "It was given to me by my mother for Christmas along with $50 which I then used to buy gifts for the grandkids. So...all has been "regifted". Sandi Rose |
| 12-28-07: 3-000345 - Shelle Cox - Lenexa, KS, USA - Act of Kindness: Christmas gift received 12-16-2007 from my friend Laura |
| 1-03-08: 6-000161 - Bobby the Army Ant - Act of Kindness that was shown when the bug was received or given away – My mommy bought this bug for me so that I could learn about kindness and spread it around my pre-school (Jack & Jill Child Care Development Center in Belleville, IL). I have enjoyed my mommy reading me the Kindness Bug Book. It is really good. I am giving this bug & book to my teacher’s (Mrs. Jennifer & Mr. Shane) so that they can help teach all of my classmates and I about kindness. Then when someone in my class does something kind, they will get the bug and the book. Then when someone else in the class does something nice, the bug and book will be passed on to them & so forth. This is going to be so much fun. I can’t wait to see who all has received this bug and book that was given to me. Thanks…Holle Wagner |

| 2-02-08: I received my Kindness Bug in January 2008 as a Birthday present from my long time very best of friends. Joan, Bill, Barb & Herb are my kind people that I love very much and was so happy to receive my cute little LadyBug holding the little yellow flower.... sooo sweet. I am in Sunny Florida and they are in Topeka, Kansas. Feb. 5, 2008 I am on my way back to "cold, cold" Kansas- (I hope to take them some Sunshine) to celebrate the Big 50 Birthday of Barb. A big party is planned and we will all celebrate. Since Bill & I were not able to be together on our Birthdays (we have been celebrating together on Jan 26 & 27 th for 25 years but we had to forgo it this year so we could all be together for Barb's Big 50... Over the hill she goes... |
