I am ashamed to say that somehow the card fell out of my car, so I was a little sad that I lost it, but I hadn't really thought about it lately.
So today I got my mail and I found this envelope with a strange non-existent return address.
I opened the envelope, and there, envelope and all, was my card from Karlie and the check intact.
But that wasn't all. There was this adorable little note and $3 cash.
Seriously. I can't believe people like Pat still exist. She didn't even give me her address so I could send her a thank you. I told Rebekah about it tonight and she said that Pat probably thought I was a little kid since most adults don't have bike funds for their birthday. Well, whatever she thought, she did a good deed. Amazing. If any of the seven people who read my blog know Pat from Tooele, tell her I said thanks for making my day and helping me buy a ten-speed. :)

i love this story too! good for pat. she did her kind deed for a struggling kid who's only ever wanted a bike. just when i'd given up on humanity, you brought the story of pat and her $3 into my life.
bless you. bless pat.
Courtney,
As I read this story, I was totally thinking that Pat was a guy. So you think it's a woman? I guess we'll never know huh. In any case, it was a really cool story and I honor Pat and his or her greatness!
What a day maker to read your amazing story. I pictured Pat as a man too and also thought he had no idea whether it was for a little kid or a big kid. Whoever he/she is, he is keeping my hope alive that there will always be good people out there who follow through on their good intentions. GO PAT!!! No one deserves a random ace of kindness more than you, Courtney, since that is how you live your life and what goes around come around
Love

Court, I think you have more that 7 people reading your blog. Also, I think that's a great story and you should know that I am Pat. Just kidding, but it definitely inspired me to try and find more opportunities to do nice things for people.
haha..."Kaheels" totally had me going for a split second there...
Hi Court. Glad to know you are blogging. Even better to be able to read along! Fantastic to see you the desert. Sure love you my friend.
