A great start to a new year!

Today I found a great story about selfless service and the niceness that can be found in the world! 

The story comes from Yahoo!

a van will 3 children ( 2- 9 year old girls, and 1- 4 year old boy) rolled in to the Logan river as the driver tried to stop on the icy roads. 


Immediately, passerby's stopped and helped rescue the three children ( the driver was able to get out). The van was UPSIDE DOWN- the passerby's jumped into the freezing water and together, flipped the van over so they could rescue the children.

One girl escaped unharmed. The boy was pulled out unconscious and not breathing but one of the bystanders gave him CPR and he was resuscitated! The other girl was also unconscious. Both were taking to Primary Children's and are out of ICU. 

I love to hear stories of normal people stopping their everyday lives to help others!
