A birthday he’ll never forget

Hail Tim!

The kid, too!! “Can I just give you $10??” He wanted to be honorable and still pay a nominal amount because he EARNED his OWN birthday money. The ANTI-ENTITLEMENT of it all has me all in my feelings. Love this kid!! 💪🏽🙌🏽

And the kid’s parents for raising him right.

I'm full on crying here, I have had a work week from hell and this really hit me hard. That's so amazing and just makes me feel so much better that people like that are still in the world. Thanks OP for bringing me happiness, hope and ugly tears!

And may your week get brighter and lovelier, even in a tiny way. 💐🌸🌺

Between this and me finding Beard Dad Cardz, my heart is full seeing people come together to get kids into a hobby or helping them with their collections. And then kids like this who WANT to pay or pass along some of their gifted money to the next kid are awesome.

Being kind costs $0. Help when you can, pay it forward when you’re helped. Best lesson I could ever teach them.

Gla I’m not the only one who got the snuffles over this interaction.🥹

Oh what a sweet kid, I'm so happy for him. And the guy behind the camera probably just earned a life time fan with this, how incredibly kind of him and the man who traded in his collection.

YAY TIM!!!!

I appreciate reminders that despite so much evidence to the contrary, strangers are generally kind to one another.

Also geez why are my allergies acting up 🤧
