901 Carnations and A Generous Heart

Wow, this kid, Hayden Godfrey, bowls me over!

Well, the sweetest thing happened on Valentine’s, yesterday.

A high school boy gave out 900 carnations, one to each girl in school, just because he wanted to make each one happy.

You’ll see in the video how wonderful his girlfriend was, too, when she found out he was buying so many flowers and they weren’t all for her!

He watched each year as the same girls got flowers and he felt that it was not right and left out so many other girls and so he decided to act.

The way he earned his money to buy the flowers is a touching story, too, because those carnations are not cheap but maybe the florist gave him a discount.

What a kid! As his mother says, “He is an old soul.”  At fourteen.  Imagine what he’ll be in ten years!  Or even next year.

That is so sweet of him. With a heart like that, he’s going to be a catch.

That is a sweet story. I remember in high school my Chemistry teacher gave all the girls in his classes a carnation, they were sold through student council.
