Welcome to today's Good News Stories. I had a few to choose from. Clever Invitation Caleb Bundle wanted to go to homecoming with Casey Smoot, so with his mom's help, he came up with a clever sign and a interesting way to deliver it. Both are students in Houston, and due to the floods to both homes, things have been a bit frazzled for families who lost homes or had flood damage. Casey accepted the creative sign and the dozen roses. Caleb's mom put the story on Facebook where it went viral with a thousand likes. To read the full story, click the link below. Man honors Las Vegas victims at Bakery An anonymous man entered a bakery and offered to pay for the next 59 orders to honor the victims in the Las Vegas shooting.

These stories are always so heartwarming. Since I've been on Facebook for days instead of here, as you know why, I came across some wonderful stories. It's so nice knowing there are so many caring and generous people in our world.

@DianneN Yes, we have. If it isn't hurricanes it's wildfires. And crazy people out to massacre innocent people.
