I was at the elementary school early again this morning. A local Honda dealership donated 50 bicycles to the Head Start class.
I covered this assignment last year and I walked away smiling.
This year, my great-great-nephew Easton was in one of the classes and he got a new bike. He was ecstatic.
He is a delightful child. Normally, it takes young kids a while to warm up to me. I'm not sure if it's the beard, or what but most kids keep their distance until they determine if I'm friend or foe.
When Easton was still tiny, he was comfortable sitting on my knee. It made me happy to see him so happy.
