A four-year-old child, whose next door neighbour was an elderly gentleman, who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old man's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.
When his mother asked him what he had said to the neighbour, the little boy just said: 'Nothing, I just
helped him cry.'
2. Students, of class one in a school, were discussing a student's family picture. One little boy in the picture had a hair colour, different from the other family members.
One of the other students suggested that he was adopted.
A little girl said: 'I know all about
adoption, bcoz I was adopted..'
'What does it mean to be adopted ?', asked another child.
'It means', said the girl, 'that you grew in your mommy's heart, instead of her tummy.!'
3. Whenever I'm disappointed with my life, I stop and think about little Jamie Scott.
Jamie was trying out for a part in the school play.
His mother told me that he'd set his heart on being in it, though she feared he would not be chosen..
On the day the parts were awarded, I went with her to collect him after school.
Jamie rushed up to her, eyes shining with pride and excitement.. 'Guess what, Mom,' he shouted, and then said those words that will remain a lesson to me..: 'I've been chosen to clap and cheer.'
4. An eye witness account from New York City , on a cold day in December.
A little boy, about 10-years-old, was standing before a shoe store on the road, barefooted, peering through the window, and shivering
with cold.
A lady approached the young boy and said: 'My, but you're in such deep thought staring in that window!'
The boy replied:'I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes.'
The lady took him by the hand, went into the store, and asked the clerk to get half a dozen pairs of socks for the boy.
She then asked if he could give her a basin of water and a towel.
He quickly brought them to her.
