Six year old hero

I couldn't even imagine losing one of my boys. What I don't understand is if the kids got picked up by Helo, why were they walking down the road alone?
 
You gotta be kidding me. A helicopter can take 7 children, but not ONE SINGLE adult to look after the children? *SHOCKED*

Still, that 6 year old did quite well. Surely luck was on his side too, but his parents should be proud.

All the more reason to drill some basics into the kids. Name, address, telephone #.

One of the Shower gifts we got was a coupon for 5 of those little metal tags you lace into a child's shoe with a name and telephone number on it. What a great idea! We were going to use our home phone, but it makes 100% more sense to use a cell phone.
 
Looks like the young man has decent parents. They've definitely taught him responsibility. A wrenching story, but, I can understand the parents decision completely. Since the helo didn't come back right off, they did the right thing.
 
Okay,Ross if Lynne reads this she'll need a big box of kleenex. I can't imagine having my kid out of my sight when he was small. The parents did a great job,and I am glad they got reunited with their parents.

Damn, but I love a happy ending.

You can't even make me believe that about you! [lol]

Don't take my word for it, ask Ross's niece Liz. She was shooting my 1911A1 with full power lead bullet loads (and other stuff like the AR clone, as well).
 
You know I was trying for that Bitch image. Guess that won't work much. [lol]
I'm with you on the kids and military. I'll go out of my way for either. [lol]

Ahh, you'll need my wife for your mentor in that case. She can be a total BITCH and she's proud of it (fortunately I'm not usually on the receiving end). She also has the same soft spots you and I do.
 
Can't say I have the bitch,but if I'm pissed well you just do not want to be around. Takes alot for me to get there,but when I blow,well you better run.
One of my father-in-laws friends, was I guess a grump,came off as really gruff,but it did not take long for me to figure out he was the biggest teddy bear around.
I'll have to take lesson from your wife. [lol] [lol]
Oh and NIckle I have you pegged for the teddy bear. [twisted]

Sorry, Nickel, I've met her and I've already seen through that act.

Uh... either that, or since I'm not a serviceman, I qualify as a kid. Did I just get adopted?

Well, I guess Ross has seen both sides of her personality. SHe can be really nice, but DON'T PO her. Most of the Dead Horse that were there have seen her in a really foul mood. It isn't a pretty picture.

I'm told she got it from her father, but I never got on his bad side, He absolutely loved it when we visited. Of course, my mother-in-law didn't want him to have beer in the house, but she wouldn't say boo about it if I was there MIGHT have something to do with it. I miss the both of them, they're long gone.

And she's the one that went to Finger Lakes instead, right?

Yeah, but not the Finger Lakes Rally - she doesn't ride. She went with our friends to the wineries; they had to stock up on ice wines. :(
