The man
stopped at the flower shop to order some
flowers
to be wired
to his mother who lived 200 miles away
As he got
out of his car he noticed a girl sitting on the curb
sobbing.
He asked
her what was wrong and she replied,
"Iwanted to
buy a red rose for my mother,
but I only
have 75 cents and a rose costs $2.00.
The man
smiled and said,
"Come on in
with me. I will buy you a rose for your
mother."
He placed
his FTD order of flowers to his mother
and bought
a rose for the girl.
As they
were leaving he offered the girl a ride.
She
responded,
"Yes,
please, if you could. Take me to my
mother,"
and she
directed him to a cemetery
where she
placed the rose on a freshly dug grave.
The man
returned to the flower shop,
canceled
the wire order,
picked up
the flowers and drove the 200 miles
to his
mother's home.
