Wendy Bailey said her son Brandon had waited two weeks for a new refrigerator to be delivered so that he could make an awesome box fort. But when the refrigerator finally arrived to their house, it did not have a box.

Lowe's delivery driver Alejandro Porter saw the child's disappointment and went back to the store to find him a box for his fort.

"The kind delivery man from Lowe's felt so bad he went out of his way to go back and get him a box," Bailey said.

"He said, 'Every little boy needs an awesome box fort'. Now, that's going above and beyond. There's one thrilled 6-year-old in my house this morning who also learned an important lesson today about kindness."

Bailey posted the picture of Porter bringing her son the empty box on her Facebook page.

"I honestly can't say enough about how kind the man was to go out of his way for a 6-year-old," Bailey said. "And in turn, it was a moment to talk to my son about the fruits of the spirit and how a simple, small act of kindness can make someone else so very happy."
