January 8th was one of the coldest mornings we’ve had so far this winter in northeast Pennsylvania. Wind chills were -20, and schools had a delayed opening. While eating breakfast that morning, Ryan started thinking about how cold it was outside. So I make the suggestion that we make hot chocolate for his school crossing guards to help keep them warm. So before leaving for school, Ryan prepared a handful of cups and got everything ready. We drove to his school and offered each of the crossing guards a cup to help keep them warm. Taken by surprise, they clearly didn’t know how to respond. So they simply thanked Ryan for his generosity and went about their day. He even brought a cup in for his teacher, Mrs. Borger. This marks a very proud moment for me as a father. It is great to see his excitement and interest in wanting to help others.
