I don’t like to gush, but the
5-year-old girl in Alaska, clad only in socks and light clothing, who carried
her 18-month-old sister a half-mile when it was 31 degrees below
zero leaves me awestruck. If she had just walked unencumbered, I would
have been amazed; but she was carrying her sister. You try that.
The girls were home alone when
the power went out, and the 5-year-old got scared, and decided to go to a
neighbor’s house. Again—that presence of mind in a 5-year-old leaves me
stunned.
The girls made it to a neighbor’s
house. They had cold-related injuries, but are expected to make a full
recovery.
Young lady, you are truly a hero.
