Kason Johnson turned 8 years old on October 16th. That day, a lot of balloons(气球) were sent to his second-grade classroom at Mountain Grove Elementary in Missouri. It was an exciting day, but on the way out to his mom’s car, tragedy happened. Kason lost his control of the balloons, and they flew away…never to be seen again.

Five hundred miles away, Todd Huyler was working in Cleveland, Tennessee. He found Kason’s balloons in his working place. He quickly understood that the balloons were for an 8-year-old boy named Kason through the note on the balloons. He also knew the boy’s school information through the note.

Most people would have thrown the balloons away, but not Todd! Instead, he started collecting a few gifts to send to the birthday boy. He wrote Kason’s parents a letter and included a photo of himself and his dog, Henry. Todd also included a handmade baseball bat(球棒), a gift for Kason’s teacher, and $100 for the child! Todd sent the care package to the middle school, where teachers passed it to Kason and his family.

In his letter, Todd said the simple act of a family showing love to their 2nd grader with a gift of surprise really brought him sunshine. “How amazingly lucky Kason is to have a family that will try their best to show love.”

Can you believe how generous this stranger was? What a kind thing to do for a little boy who lost his birthday balloons. We are sure Kason will always remember this birthday!
