I am a single mom, and on Friday, Feb. 5, I brought my two daughters to Swiss Chalet to celebrate my 13-year-old daughter’s birthday.

Two young men sitting at the table next to us — their names are Mike and Dustin — chatted with us till they finished their dinner and left.

At the end of our dinner, our server brought us our receipt and told us the two men that were sitting beside us at the beginning had paid for our dinner.

Mike and Dustin, two total strangers, paid for our dinner. On the receipt was a little note wishing my daughter a happy 13th birthday.

I have no means of contacting Mike and Dustin to thank them for their random act of kindness, but the world needs more peo-ple like them.

That is why I am writing this letter. Maybe they will read it and know their random act of kindness was much appreciated.
