Lego is so much more than just a toy. What a beautiful post from Isaiah 117 House Carter County-Johnson-Unicoi. If we can ever help, please just let us know! â¤ď¸
Recently, we welcomed an 11-year-old girl into our home. She was kind, talkative, and incredibly independent. She was also missing part of her arm below the elbow.
What amazed us was how much she loved building Legos. One of our staff members grabbed a few sets without thinking much about it and brought them to her. When she finished, she proudly showed the completed setâand the little Lego character had red hair just like hers and was missing an arm below the elbow too. That set was meant for her.
Moments like this happen more often in our home than we can explainâtimes when it feels like we already have exactly what a child needs before they even walk through our door. And that is not because of us. It is because of an incredible community that makes sure we are able to care for these kids in such meaningful ways
