Family Accidentally Texts Baby News To Complete Strangers, They Pay Them A Visit And Bring Gifts For The Baby
A typical wrong number text mix-up usually leads to a “sorry” and a “no problem,” but this one was anything but typical. New parents Lindsey and Mark Lashley couldn’t be happier when their baby Cason Knox came into the world. However, they had no idea that while Lindsey was giving birth, Mark’s mother Teresa was texting updates of the progress to a total stranger.
More info: Facebook
Teresa thought she was sending baby news to family and friends, but there was Dennis Williams’ number as well. He was glad that everything was going well but had no idea who these people were.
However, that didn’t stop him and his brother, Derrick, from congratulating the new parents in person as a random act of kindness.

Mark told Daily Mail Online that his mother didn’t realize she was texting the wrong number and inviting a stranger up to the room where he and his wife were caressing their new baby boy:
“It was different. I mean, my friend just walked in and said: ‘Some more people are coming down the hallway,’ and we didn’t know who they were and they said, ‘Oh, we’re the ones who got the random text message.’
“The reason it happened was my cousin had a new phone and I guess those boys ended up with her old number.”

Here is the conversation that started everything
Mark said that as soon as they understood what happened, they appreciated the random act of kindness.
“[My mother] thought she was still talking to my cousin, that’s who she thought she was talking to,” Mark added. “I don’t think we would have randomly invited them over or texted the baby announcement but we appreciate it and the gifts. You don’t hear about much compassion in the news anymore.”
People thought the whole situation was as heartwarming as it was funny
We all need more of this. Imagine if the news you were watching were dominated with Good News, and how that would influence society as a whole. I would have nothing against copycats of this! Why do we not talk more about people being nice, decent, helpful than we do in the news? Why is something newsworthy only if it is particularly horrifying?
This one is really wholesome, I don't see anything wrong with it. But what I can see is people doing "nice stuff" for publicity though. You're completely right though, there's way too much negativity on TV, social media, etc. Wholesome stuff like this should be making headlines just as much as everything else.

That's very sweet of them, but I'm barely willing to see my family after I give birth, let alone total strangers... Hope this doesn't become a thing
That's what I was thinking... I barely want the grandparents there.. My downstairs exploded and I ran a freaking marathon.. Nope.. wait a week or so..
Load More Replies...Love it :) reminds me of the grandma who texted the wrong guy on thanksgiving and then fed him anyway ;)
Such sweet, good men. This is how to make connections with people. It used to happen in person, now it has to happen by text, since so few people talk to strangers. Love this.
I am speechless. This is what making America Great is what I can only say is the America that I want to think is great, is by people just getting a genuine, heartfelt laugh and the humility to apologize. And these two brothers and the family are the epitome of the America I feel is only ever truly going to be great. Because I'll be long gone when and if it ever will be Great. So thank you. I have hope for the human race. I'm sorry to say it time the herd is thinned. And those who think America has ever been great, have got to realize that men and women and Navajo and blacks and every body who was slaughtered and were the only time America was great. So it's a start and my hats off to people just being people. And I'm sad I even have to write this.
AMERICA IS A SHITHOLE BECAUSE YOU PEOPLE ARE SO UNEDUCATED

Seriously? No one remember this OLD news few years ago on Bored Panda.
This story is a few yrs old. Adorable? Yes. But this is at least the 5th time I've seen a social media post about it..
Well, probably we will see this article once again someday =P The same as the article with vintage photos of gay couples or with photos of girls making funny faces. It's normal. The same is on Instagram, where on many many many profiles you can see works of the same well-known artists posted million times...
