Drew and Becki Bausman share joy. Screenshot credit: CBS News video I know everyone is chomping at the bit to get primary results, but this heart-tugger was too good to wait for Friday.
So, welcome to a Feel-Good Tuesday edition of Feel-Good Friday!
Seven-year-old Drew Bausman loves United Parcel Service. At that age, you love a lot of things; your mom, pizza, Legos. But Drew’s singular focus is on the delivery company. It brings him a particular joy, according to his mother Becky Bausman in an interview with KMAX-TV in Sacramento. “Every time a UPS truck would go by, ‘UPS!’ ” Mom Becky Bausman said of Drew. His favorite color: brown. His Halloween costume? You guessed it. “So we got him a little uniform for Halloween and it stuck,” Becky said. “He started wanting to deliver packages to his friends and he told everyone who would listen that he wants to be a UPS driver when he grows up.” The UPS company got wind of this, and helped turn little Drew’s dream into a reality. “We heard that he loves delivering, loves UPS and loves bringing joy to – what we do – to other people,” said Ian Gettys, UPS driver. In a miniature truck decorated with flames and filled with packages, Gettys drove Drew to his school, Caleb Greenwood Elementary. Together, they announced their arrival. That is super cool for any kid to experience, but it is beyond wonderful when you get to see a special needs child’s wish fulfilled in this way. As you can tell from the video, Drew’s joy is uncontained. According to Drew’s mom, that’s the very reason why Drew loves the company: because UPS delivers joy. “Joy is kind of my platform as it relates to Down Syndrome because, to be honest, having a kid […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
