Australian mother shares note from mysterious stranger while on holiday in Mooloolaba on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast

A thoughtful mother who apologized to another cafe customer for her noisy children has shared the note the kind stranger left her family.

Mother-of-two Tyne enjoyed breakfast with her husband and two young sons while on holiday in Mooloolaba, on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, earlier this month.

Soon she saw a woman reading a book at a nearby table and became concerned that her children would disrupt her morning.

‘I immediately apologized to the lovely lady sitting next to us [because I] I was worried the boys wouldn’t be too peaceful,” Tyne recalled.

“We were chatting for a while and then she left after her breakfast.”

The mother thought her conversation with the unknown woman was over until she received a note from the cashier when she went to pay the bill.

‘We go to pay and the cashier gives us this. I almost cried,” Tyne wrote.

The woman had written a kind note that said, “It was so nice to share my breakfast room with you.

‘Please continue what you are doing. You have a beautiful family.’

Tyne added that the mystery customer had also paid for their breakfast.

“Her kind words were what I needed to hear!” she said.

Tyne went on to explain that the cafe was close to the Mooloolaba Sea Life Aquarium, where the family planned to spend the day.

‘Hopefully you can spend a little more at Sea Life today. Love Em,” the note ended.

Tyne shared her experience on Facebook in hopes of tracking down the friendly customer

Tyne shared the note on Facebook in the hope that ‘Em’ would see how grateful her family was for the kind gesture.

‘If you’re Em staying in Mooloolaba for work and have gone to a quirky local that’s your favorite, you’re an amazing soul!’ she said.

‘Thank you thank you. We pay it forward.”

Several online sleuths speculated that the stranger could be Em Rusciano, a singer and comedian who appeared on the second season of Australian Idol in 2004.

Commenters highlighted the similarity between Em’s heart and the signature of ‘E’ and Ms. Rusciano.

‘The writing immediately reminded me of her; she’s heading that way for work this weekend too,” one person wrote.

“Whether it was her or not, it’s so much fun.”

Other commentators applauded the stranger’s patience and generosity.

‘I love this! If only there were more people like her in this world,” said one.

“There are still beautiful people in this world,” wrote another.

Another said: ‘I’m 82 this year and think it’s great that mums and dads can take their kids for breakfast every now and then, that’s never happened in my time.

“Enjoy it and they and most of us older people love children and love to see families doing this together.”

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Em Rusciano’s management for comment.
