A Little Bit of Awesome: 5/29/2020

A 7-year-old kid in North Carolina found out his babysitter’s prom was canceled. So he planned one for her and asked her to be his date. His mom helped put it together in their yard. Dinner included an appetizer of peanut butter and apple slices.


A mom in Florida shared how she accidentally flashed her daughter’s first-grade class on Zoom. She didn’t know the girl was in the master bedroom on a laptop when she came out of the shower to get her clothes.


I guess we all need to find things to occupy our time while sheltered in place. I think she’ll be looking for a new distraction.
