In a perfect world, children would have a warm bed, a hot meal, and clean clothes. They wouldn’t sleep in the cramped quarters of the family car….huddling together to chase away the bitter chill….a cold so deep it clings to your skin and your very spirit. In a perfect world, a child would not live in a parked car in front of their middle school building…


Gulp!

Yes, it is. The good news is when the school discovered the family, they found resources for them, including a rental.

Ah – we might not always be so virtuous individually – but often someone in our mixed mob of personalities will set the bar for the rest of us by stepping up like that.
A great ending to a non-fictional story.
