    For many couples, living together in a 96-square-foot house would be a challenge. But for Chris Derrick and Betty Ybarra, it was a Christmas miracle.

  2. How a Trash Crew Fostered Boy’s Love of Garbage Trucks (WATCH)
    At the age of four, some boys love super heroes. Some love football. Some love both. Mycal Bickings of Levittown, Pennsylvania has only one passion — trash trucks — and your heart will melt when you see the relationship he has with the trash collectors who come to his home every Thursday. His father made a video in honor of the boy’s Buddies because the town hired a new waste company and last week’s was the last garbage pickup at Mycal’s house.

Her friends got into it, too.
  6. Boy Shovels Snow for All His Elderly Neighbors
    A 10 year old Missouri boy has spent all the last month shoveling his driveway, and everyone else’s driveways. And he has not asked for any compensation.
