Text Celebrating Birth Is Mistakenly Sent To Two Guys
Started With A Text
Brothers Deorick and Dennis Williams were sitting at home when they received a text message from a number that wasn’t saved on either of their cell phones.
The message announced, with excitement, that the baby was on the way and the mother was about halfway dilated. Instead of ignoring the obviously accidental message, the fun young men decided to reply back and congratulate the happy family!
Another One
It turns out the creator of the group message was the soon-to-be grandmother, Teresa Lashley, and her messages didn’t stop there! Just a few hours later, the boys received another text from the happy grandmother sharing that the baby was born and was a healthy 7 pounds, 11 ounces.
Deorick replied again and told them that he and his friends were on the way to the hospital to celebrate with her son-in-law and daughter, Mark and Lindsey Knox, in person!
Following Through With Their Promise
Sure enough, Deorick and Dennis arrived at the hospital with a gift for the handsome newborn baby, Cason! Teresa was shocked that the boys actually showed up and shared her gratitude for the boys on Facebook.
“What a blessing these two guys were to our family. They were so sweet and kind to do this! You two are great guys and thank you for giving to someone you didn’t know!”
Things like this just don’t happen every day!

Reaching Out To Them
After the caring young men left, the family realized that they failed to collect any more information about them besides their numbers. So they posted to Facebook in an attempt to find and thank them again!
Just as they had hoped, the story became viral and they were all able to touch base and exchange information! Major news publications have even reached out to Deorick and Dennis to cover this unique story!
Newfound Friends
Deorick and Dennis easily could’ve ignored the accidental message, but they chose to share a wonderful day with the excited family instead! Now if Mark and Lindsey ever need babysitters, they know who to ask!
