The Kindness of Goats

Goats like pumpkin. Well I've heard it said that goats will eat anything, but perhaps they are particularly fond of pumpkin. If this were true then my brother would be no exception. My brother, Chad, is especially fond of a pumpkin cake that our cousin Anne makes. She was kind enough to make it one time when we were all getting together for dinner and Chad has reminded her of the deliciousness ever since. Today I was speaking to our cousin and she mentioned that I should let her know if my mom and I were sticking to the plan of going to visit my brother this coming weekend. If so, she wanted us to let her know so she could bake pumpkin cake and send it with us for Chad. I thought that this was a very kind idea on her part. Well, our cousin then spoke to my mom and the plan evolved. Our cousin may now be making the trip with us, in order to deliver her cake in person. I think that this would be very interesting and kind. I'm sure that my brother would be shocked to see her. So, from the kind words that my brother shared with our cousin Anne about her yummy cake, evolved this kindness that may see Anne coming with us! I am part of a kind and thoughtful family..how great!
