Our Kidde Hero of the Week spotlights Bryant Collins.

Recently, Kix read a story in USA Today about how Bryant stepped in and saved a baby's life, and he wanted to share it with you!

Last week, Bryant Collins, was driving on a Georiga highway and saw something on the side of the road. He pulled over and discovered a shocking sight – a 15 month-old baby! The child had apparently crawled from his home through the woods to Highway 72. Bryant called 911 to alert authorities and stayed with the baby until they arrived.

Bryant, who had previously been incarcerated, said that he's been a changed and sober man for over five years and is thankful that the good Lord gave him an opportunity to show society that he could do some good in this world.

Kix's Response:

Isn't that cool?!?! Hopefully, we all get to have that moment, regardless of how we live our life, which lets us know maybe our purpose here on the planet is more important than just getting up and slugging through another day.
