Story from the park yesterday…

Bryan took Declan to the park yesterday… As Dex was playing, Bryan struck up a conversation with a mom there and they started talking about Declan’s school (which mixes special needs and non-special needs kids). Bryan told the mom that one of the things he loves about the special needs atmosphere is how all the kids really help each other. At that exact time, Declan was standing on the other side of the jungle gym, next to a kid who looked to be about 18 months old. Bryan watched him lean over and say something to the boy and before Bryan got a chance to investigate what was up, Declan leaned back and yelled to Bryan, “Daddy!!! He needs help getting on the bridge!”

Sniff, sniff.
