Touching Story

A couple of days ago I got a message from one of our neighbors, Kelle, that said her oldest daughter, Kylie, had a little something for Caleb. I thought she must've misspoken because it is their youngest, Maleia, that is in LOOOOOVE with Caleb. Whenever Maleia sees Caleb walking in the neighborhood, she practically starts shaking with excitement and wants desperately to say hi to him and give him a hug.

When I called Kelle back, she restated that Kylie had something for Caleb and could she just send her up to give it to him. When they arrived I saw that Kylie was holding a little baggie with some money in it. She explained that she had had a lemonade stand the week before and wanted to donate half of the money to kids with Muscular Dystrophy. She went on to explain that she would be having a few more lemonade stands this summer and would split up the money the same way.

Kelle told me that Kylie came up with this idea on her own! What an amazing heart this little girl has. We are continually humbled at Caleb's ability to touch so many people's lives, and the amount of support we receive on a daily basis.
