If you’ve ever been the recipient of a “pay it forward” gesture, you know that with it comes a feeling of gratitude that just can’t be explained.
Along with her five kids this week, Nina Carr was on the receiving end of said humbling experience after having lunch at Cracker Barrel.

Emotional, Nina shared the generosity of strangers on Facebook saying,
“I’m crying with tears of THANKS as I share this with you.”
She says her husband Will is working for the summer, so she’s on full-time mom-duty with her small village of kiddos. It’s fun, but it’s a lot of work.
“If you suffer from anxiety like I do, going out can sometimes feel like a chore.”
As a fun treat, Nina wanted to surprise the kids by taking them out to eat.
“I was willing to take control of my anxiety and do it. Will and I work hard on teaching our children how to behave out in public and with their manners.”
Nina was reminded that their hard work and intentionality has paid off. A woman approached her while the kids were in the restroom to praise Nina for how well behaved her children are.
