We met Emily and Raymond Saft at Wings Over the Rockies. Emily is Elliot’s first girlfriend.

After a couple of hours, Emily said she was hungry. Elliot asked me for the car keys. I kept putting him off, I thought he’d might lose them or misplace them. But he was very persistent. Eventually i agreed to open the car door with the remote control from the museum front door.

He ran to the car and brought back a loaf of challah bread and piñon nuts for Emily to eat.

He’s only 6 and so kind, so thoughtful of others. I can’t stop thinking about it. I’m so proud of who he is.
