“This is my son Logan & his friend from school. Logan came home one day & said “mommy I want my hair cut” he explained to me that there was a little boy in his class who recently got his hair cut. He said that kids were making fun of him & that this little boy was upset to the point of crying & just wanting to be alone.
Logan told me that he did not want him to feel alone & that they would share it together. Logan is a very very sweet kid. He has one of the biggest hearts that I have ever seen.
After our house fire in December 2016, we were stressed. Between trying to find a house, and afford to move at the last minute, Christmas plus our daughter’s 5th birthday.. let's just say the weight on our shoulders was at an all-time high. Logan earns an allowance, and he saves his money. One day, while out paying bills, he reached into his pocket & pulled out $40 that he had saved & insisted that I took it (even though I refused) to help pay bills. I broke down in tears. For only being 7 years old, Logan has been through a lot. I served in the military for 8 years, I had been away from home at times & even deployed to Afghanistan in 2013.
In 2015, at the age of 6, Logan lost his father to ALS. Nothing in life has been easy but I have tried to teach my children not to be selfish, not to bully, and not to be mean to anyone regardless of the situation. Little thing’s like this are a reminder that even though the battles & struggles that we have faced, I have done something right. Logan, mommy could not be any more proud of you than I am right now. Regardless of the struggles, you have faced in the past 7 years, you ALWAYS put others before yourself. Keep doing the things you are doing & you will go far. I love you son!”
