One of my co-workers is a 27 year old man. He is married has two boys and another baby on the way. J and I get along great. I call him 4 because he is like a fourth son to me. And he calls me Jmomma. We joke, and tease, and hug and well I just love this kid. He really reminds me a lot of my oldest Slacker.
The other day he said to me "isn't it time for you to bake brownies?
I said "J doens't your wife bake?" His reply "yes but they taste better when mom bakes them" LOL Like I said he is my 4th son.
Anyway....
Yesterday J took his two boys to the store to pick up some food. The boys are 6 and 2. There was a homeless man with a sign saying he needed food so J went over to talk to him and found out the man came up here from WV looking for work and found none and now had no money or food to get back home. He was living in his car.
So J went into the store bought $50.00 worth of food, had the man follow him home and gave him a huge cooler to put the food in.
His son asked him why and J said "this could happen to anyone and people need to help if they can".
What a great lesson for a 6 year old, one he will never forget.
I think I will have to bake a double batch of brownies for J.
What a wonderful young man he is.
