Whilst visiting the local Cracker Barrel, 8-year-old Myles Eckert of Ohio found $20 in the parking lot. As most kids would, Myles instantly began to think of ways he could spend his $20 and decided he would probably buy a video game. Instead, Myles saw a soldier sitting in the restaurant and decided to give the $20 to him wrapped in this note,
Dear Soldier,
My dad was a soldier. He’s in heaven now. I found this $20 in the parking lot when we got here. We like to pay it forward in my family. It’s your lucky day! Thank you for your service.
Myles Eckles, a gold star kid”
Myles’ father Sergeant Andy Eckert had died whilst serving in Iraq when the boy was just five-weeks-old. Having heard stories of his father’s bravery and that of other soldiers fighting in far off countries, Myles thought the money would be better spent on paying back Lt. Colonel Frank Daly. Daly has since used the note to inspire others across America and says that Myles has given him a “lifetime direction.” Watch the full coverage from CBS Evening News below.

]]>Sea Lions do not get enough attention, which is a shame considering how awesome this one is. Alex, a seven-year-old boy diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome was at the zoo with his family when Sophie the sea lion started following the boy around. The two played for a couple of minutes, with Alex running back and forth in front of the tank as Sophie followed, before Alex exclaimed he was having the best time of his life.
Alex’s mom, Jennifer Bittner, told Fox 5,
“It was amazing to witness the connection that the beautiful creature and my son seemed to share.”
And then my heart melted and I am now planning to go to the zoo as soon as possible.

No – well, I’m assuming no anyway I don’t know your story- well some of these guys have because they are jerks:
