A friend of mine whom I use to work with at Disneyland posted this on his Facebook yesterday and I had to share it with you all.............................A family who was from Connecticut came into Mickey's house this afternoon. The couple and their little boy came to see Mickey. The little boy is a student at Sandy Hook school. He was in a classroom that eascaped the tragedy. Mom and Dad were both crying while they were visiting with Mickey and taking lots of photos. I asked them if their son was aware of what had happened. They told me that he wasn't aware of anything that was going on because they have been monitering the tv. They told me that he asks why all the helicopters are flying around. He was the cutest little guy. I think that their tears were tears of joy that their son survived such a tragedy and tears for the families who lost loved ones. I had tears too. We hugged each other, Mom and Dad hugged Mickey and then hugged me. It was a very special moment.
Thanks for sharing. What a touching interaction. I would probably take a Disney vacation after that too! - Sweet_Irish_Cream

Aww this just made me cry. Such a horrible thing! I'm glad that they could get away and hopefully it distracted them and brought them joy. Even if it was for just a little bit. - Queenof2princesses
