If you received a message from an unknown number, would you ignore it?
For a couple in the US, sending news of their baby's arrival to a wrong number resulted in a surprising act of kindness from two strangers.
Soon-to-be grandmother Teresa Lashley sent out a group text announcing herdaughter-in-law was in labour: "We are at the hospital. Having a baby today! She has dilated to between 5-6."
One of the recipients, Dennis Williams, didn't know the family and responded: "congrats lol but I think someone got the wrong number."
Lashley shared an image on Facebook and explained how a text message to a wrong number had lead to the brothers meeting baby Carson. She wrote: "What a blessing these two guys were to our family. They were so sweet and kind to do this!"
