Daniel & Kyrell Guess who Daniel thought Kyrell looked like? None other that his hero, Trent Richardson. Daniel said leaving, "I am really jealous of Kyrell's dreadlocks!" lol!!!
It was such a blessing to serve some families in need at our church tonight. Dan, Daniel & I got to eat supper with Kyrell & his Mom. After we ate, Daniel & Kyrell went upstairs to the children's room for some fun while Dan & I helped get Kyrell's gifts (members of our church donated gifts from the wish lists of the families who participated) loaded & hidden in his mom's car.
This was Daniel's first time to participate with this & I was a little worried about what he may say, or do, or not do..... It can sometimes be a little awkward, at least for me. It turns out though, that Daniel didn't seem to notice the 'awkwardness' of the situation or the reasons for it. He just saw another little boy, his age, that he had lots in common with. Daniel struck up a conversation the moment he was introduced to Kyrell & then treated him like they were best buds for the rest of the night. He even offered Kyrell his bag of candy that they got as they were leaving the 'party' in the children's room. That's big for Daniel because he would just about give his own life for a piece of candy! Anyway, my worrying was for nothing. I'm the one who learned something tonight from my seven year old......all of the reasons I came up with for the 'awkward' situation were really quite silly. It just comes down to people loving people.....period.
