This is Adrian :
Adrian sells newspapers at an extremely busy intersection en route home from dropping Meghan at school and every schoolday morning, without fail, the second our car stops Adrian rushes up to the window and spends the next two to three light changes entertaining Sam by dancing, signing, clapping hands...you name it, he does it...as long as it gets a smile and some handclapping out of Sam. I can count on my one hand the number of days Adrian has not been at work, he's there whether its blazing hot or pouring with rain...and it's about the only part of our car journey during which Samuel does not moan and cry. Over the weekend we received a truly precious gift from a certain Knight and his Princess with an ever more precious message. Seeing as we seem to have been the object of many generous gestures lately, we wished to share our blessings with someone who is always smiling and friendly and keen to make others happy, so we went to share our gift with Adrian and thank him for the cherished contribution he makes to Sam's life. We'd be quite devastated if we had to face that intersection without Adrian as I am sure several other motorists would feel as Adrian's antics usually draw smiles from others as well (although there are the occasional frowns and disapproving looks).
