KURTIS THE STOCK BOY
AND
BRENDA THE CHECKOUT GIRL
In a supermarket, Kurtis the stock boy, was busily working when a new
voice came over the loud speaker asking for a carry out at register 4.
Kurtis was almost finished, and wanted to get some fresh air, and decided to
answer the call. As he approached the checkout stand a distant smile caught
his eye, the new checkout girl was beautiful. She was an older woman
(maybe 26, and he was only 22) and he fell in love.
Later that day, after his shift was over, he waited by the punch clock
to find out her name. She came into the break room, smiled softly at him,
took her card and punched out, then left. He looked at her card, BRENDA.
He walked out only to see her start walking up the road. Next day, he
waited outside as she left the supermarket, and offered her a ride home. He
looked harmless enough, and she ac cepted. When he dropped her off, he asked
if maybe he could see her again, outside of work. She simply said it wasn't
possible.
He pressed and she explained she had two children and she couldn't
afford a baby-sitter, so he offered to pay for the baby-sitter. Reluctantly
she accepted his offer for a date for the following Saturday. That Saturday
night he arrived at her door only to have her tell him that she was unable
to go with him. The baby-sitter had called and canceled. To which Kurtis
simply said, "Well, let's take the kids with us."
She tried to explain that taking the children was not an option, but
again not taking no for an answer, he pressed. Finally Brenda brought him
inside to meet her children. She had an older daughter who was just as cute
as a bug, Kurtis thought, and then Brenda brought out her son, in a wheelchair.
He was born a paraplegic with Down syndrome.
Kurtis asked Brenda, "I still don't understand why the kids can't come
with us?" Brenda was amazed. Most men would run away from a woman with two
kids, especially if one had disabilities - just like her first husband and
father of her children had done. Kurtis was not ordinary - - - he had a
different mindset.
That evening Kurtis and Brenda loaded up the kids went to dinner and
the movies. When her son needed anything Kurtis would take care of him.
When he needed to use the restroom, he picked him up out of his wheelchair,
took him and brought him back. The kids loved Kurtis. At the end of the
evening, Brenda knew this was the man she was going to marry and spend the
rest of her life with.
A year later, they were married and Kurtis adopted both of her children.
Since then they have added two more kids.
It's a fact of Life:
After Monday and Tuesday, even the Calendar says : WTF .......
