i ran the turkey trot this morning and dragged my family along to cheer me on. shortly after the start, my husband, who was holding our 10 month old, noah, had the biggest scare of his life. our daughter, lily, 4, had rolled into the lake. she had chosen to play her new leapster while relaxing in the stroller. a kind stranger went into the lake after my daughter and many others assisted my husband in getting lily safe and warm. we do not know the name of the gentleman who rescued lily. we would love to thank him with all our hearts. we are thankful to our guardian angels this very special thanksgiving. and, we are sorry for littering the lake with the leapster learning pad.
