I saw this story about 4 A.M. and it gave me the biggest smile. And if I'm smiling that early, you know it's a good story! A man in Canada wanted to make senior citizens smile so he purchased an entire truck full of flowers.

Joline Willsey owns Gypsy Blooms Flower Truck in Alberta, Canada. A gentleman named Rene Blais approached her and bought all of the flowers she had in her truck just to make others happy. Blais asked Willsey to purchase her entire truck full of flowers. He then asked her to park her truck in front of a senior living facility. Seniors could then come out and pick out flowers they wanted so they could make bouquets for their rooms.

How sweet is that?! Both Willsey and Blais said that the gesture brought joy and happiness to the seniors. It really is the little things in life that make people happy. Read more on the story here.
