This post doesn't involve a cute picture of our kids. It won't have a witty retelling of an embarrassing moment. What it does contain, is an inspiring and touching story of some great kids from Montivideo, MN.
This story aired on our local news tonight. Lady Di and I both had trouble keeping our eyes dry.
This video shows the love and respect this student body has for one of its classmates. It makes me proud to live in the same state as these kids. And inspires me with hope for the future. A future of acceptance and empathy. I would feel blessed if our kids grew up to be as compassionate as the kids from this school.
I'm sure many parents will connect with this student's parents.
Here is the link if you are interested.

Thanks for posting this. I cried too. What a great kid. He deserved it.
I'm sending you a blog award, if you are interested in this kind of thing. You'll have to come to Just Because My Pickle Talks to find out more about it.
That is a terrific story. Thanks for passing it along. Alone in my office, so no one sees that 'I had something in my eye!'
Sniff...
