Don't forget, Thursday is 1-4-3 Day in Pennsylvania. But even if you don't live in PA, you can still join in by doing random acts of kindness.

As we first reported over the weekend ( click here ), the state has declared Thursday 1-4-3 Day on the 143rd day of 2019 in honor of Fred Rogers, encouraging everyone to do something nice for someone else. Mister Rogers, as most of us know him, used the code 1-4-3 to say "I love you" with the numbers 1-4-3 representing the number of letters in each word of the phrase.

Even the Pittsburgh Pirates Parrot mascot and the Philadelphia Phillies' Phillie Phanatic are getting in the spirit:

Governor Tom Wolf declared 1-4-3 Day in Pennsylvania because Rogers was born in Latrobe, PA, and Mister Rogers Neighborhood was produced at WQED-TV studios in Pittsburgh's Oakland neighborhood. But there's nothing to say that Mister Rogers fans from coast-to-coast, even in foreign lands, can't participate.

Your gesture "can be simple as holding the door or sharing a cup of coffee with someone," said Gov. Wolf.

"A little kindness goes a long way." PA Gov. Tom Wolf
