We want to introduce you to a special birthday boy, 9 year old Thomas Daniel! Recently, Ofc. Lynema saw a little boy chasing after a school bus early in the morning. When the bus did not stop, Ofc. Lynema asked him if he needed some help.
The boy, Thomas Daniel, told him that he had missed the bus and his mom did not have a car. Ofc. Lynema (with the mom’s permission) gave him a ride to school and during their travels, Ofc. Lynema learned that it was Thomas’ 9th birthday. Thomas invited him to his birthday party after school but also confided that he gets bullied at school so he was afraid no one from his class would show up.
Ofc. Lynema did make it to the party that evening, but unfortunately Thomas’ fears came true. No one other Ofc. Lynema and the birthday boy’s siblings came….The officer also noticed something else was missing, cake!….but he planned to fix that.
The next day, Ofc. Lynema brought back-up…..his teammates surprised Thomas with a follow-up party when he got off the bus complete with a Krispy Kreme donut cake, presents, and a singing quartet. “This is the best birthday ever!” Thomas told them.
No kid should get bullied, and no kid should worry if anyone will come to the party. Next year Thomas Daniel, make sure you drop us that invite a little sooner. We wouldn’t want to miss it!
