保护好孩子的梦想编者按:美国马萨诸塞州小男孩詹姆斯做梦都想拥有一套乐高“绿宝石午夜火车”玩具。他用了整整两年时间攒够了钱款,却失望地发现这款玩具已经停卖了,而无论是网上的少量存货还是二手转卖,它们的标价对詹姆斯来说都是天文数字。于是小男孩给乐高玩具写了一封信询问,却得知这款玩具已经停产。让人内心温暖的是,在詹姆斯11岁生日时,他收到了乐高悄悄寄来了这份惊喜。你一定想分享詹姆斯的快乐,小男孩脸上欢呼雀跃的表情,是不是也让你感动呢?这让我不禁联想起同样让人内心温暖的一个小女孩。当得知妈妈吃光了她的万圣节糖果时,小女孩红着眼眶,挤出笑容安慰妈妈说:妈妈我不生你的气,我只是有点伤心吃那么多糖果会让你头痛,你应该多喝水下一个万圣节我就不会伤心了,但你不能没有跟我商量就吃掉我的糖果,明年我们一起分享好吗?其实这只是父母们的一个万圣节恶作剧,还有很多小朋友也得到了同样的“噩耗”,孩子们天真的各种抓狂让人捧腹,还有小女孩的“nextHalloweenwecansharemycandy”让人感动。我相信小女孩长大后,她如果听说有个小朋友特别渴望得到心中的“乐高”,她也一定会帮助实现。瞧,正能量就是这样传播和积聚的。FromthefirstmomentaboywithAspergersSyndromesawanexpensiveLEGOtrainset,hewantedtocallithisown.Sotheparentsofthe11-year-oldpromisedtobuyit,aslongashesavedupthemoneyhimself.Lastspring,aftertwoyearsofdiligentsaving,JamesGrocciahadcollected$100-enoughtobuythecovetedEmeraldNightTrainset.Butjustasallhishardworkcametoapinnacle,Jamesandhisparentslearnedthetoywasoutofproduction,andwasavailableonlyasacollectiblefor$250atahandfulofretailers.JamesattendsacounselingserviceinWestBoylston,Mass.,whereheparticipatesinaLEGOsupportgrouptohelpwithAspergers.OneoftheprogramssocialworkerssuggestedaskingforthecompanyshelpinrealizingJameswish.Karen,hismother,decidedtheyshouldwritealettertoLEGO.“TogetherwewrotetoLegotoseeiftherewasanywaytheycouldfindoneforusfromsomedarkcornerofawarehouseorsomething,”shetoldtheBanner.“Jameswasveryconciseaboutwhathewantedtosay.Heplannedit,andIjusthelpedhimorganizehisthoughts,”shesaidtothenewspaper.TheletterwastranscribedinavideopostedtoYouTubebyJamesparents.Itsaid:FortwoyearsIkeptallthemoneyIgotforbirthdayandholidaygifts,someofmyallowanceandsomemoneyIgotforparticipatinginaresearchproject.Atlast,acoupleofmonthsagoIhadmy$100andwasreadytobuytheLEGOsetofmydreams.Mymomstartedlookingforitonlineandcouldnotfindany.WecheckedtheLEGOstoreinourareaandtheydidnthaveiteither.Iwascompletelycrushed.Youvestoppedmakingit!Itseemstheonlywaytogetonenowistopay$250onAmazonoreBay,sincenowitisconsideredcollectible.IgotanotherLEGOset,thinkingIcouldforgetabouttheEmeraldNight,buteverytimeIseeitanywhereonlineIgetverysadanddisappointed.IstillwanttheEmeraldNightsobadly,buttherearenonetobefound.
