We could use more kids doing things like this.
A 10-year-old in Massachusetts boy named Michael Richardson has been making his neighbors smile every morning. Michael gets up early every day to stand outside his house and hold up inspirational signs for people as they drive by.
The signs say things like “Be Happy” and “Today Is a Great Day”. Sometimes that’s all it takes to help someone who might be having a bad day.
Great work Michael. More of this please!

This is probably the most popular weekend for carving pumpkins. You might be cutting up a few Jack-o-Lanterns the next few days. But where did it all start? Why do we carve pumpkins?
Much like Halloween costumes, pumpkin carving started out as a way for people to scare off evil spirits around Halloween. Back in the day, the people would carve the faces into turnips, beets, or potatoes instead of pumpkins. Then it evolved into pumpkin carving.
Happy Jack-O-Lantern season!
