“I am unable to buy my daughter a cake of her own” Heartbreaking Gift

Every parent loves to celebrate their child’s birthday. It’s a day to remember the miracle that is your child, and looking back on how much they have grown, but also the love they continue to have for their child. Every parent loves to see their child’s eyes light up when they see the cake piled high with candles and watching them make their birthday wish.

For one family in Arizona, America, they had the most unexpected thing happen to them as they went to pick up their birthday cake for their precious  little girl, who was turning 11. When they went to pay for the cake, the check out assistant told them the cake had already been paid for. The family was floored.

Then they saw the note that was included with their cake.

It said, “In honor of my daughter’s 10th birthday I have chosen your cake to pay for. Each year I do this random act of kindness because I am unable to buy my daughter a cake of her own. Today is her big double digit birthday. Please enjoy your day.”

The note was signed, “McKenna’s Mom.”

Kyle, the older brother, took to social media to thank the unknown stranger for this beautiful gift.

It’s reported that McKenna’s mom’s “touching and heartwrenching tradition began because of the MISS Foundation (A charity providing counseling, advocacy, research and education). She said the organization helped her to ‘work through her grief and be able to carry it differently.’ After joining the foundation, she began to perform random acts of kindness.”

The cake not only blessed the Arizona family financially, but also with a different perspective. “It did make it kind of a little bit extra special just to be appreciative of my younger sister and to really be thankful for what I have,” Kyle said.
