Pdub, with his love/hate relationship with his neighbor kids, encouraged me to tell about a great kid.
I have friends who have adopted 2 special needs kids (one is like 10, the other 6ish) from China. This story is about the youngest one.
The slide happened in Oso about the time most kids (including this one) were on spring break. This kid, (mind you he has some major mental and physical disabilities) took it upon himself to make a donation bank for Oso out of a milk container. He took it to school after break was over, and started the donation with $6.00 of his own money. The idea went viral in the school, and the rest of the students donated nearly $400 to the cause. (100 student school). Last night, he presented the money to our Search and Rescue group.
Neat kid, some would say he's destine for greatness; but I'd assert that he's already great.
