CLINTON, Mississippi — While most kids typically dress up as a famous athlete, a doctor or an astronaut on "who do you want to be when you grow up" day at school, one kid dressed up as his hero: the school's handyman.
A video shared by ESPN shows the school handyman, affectionately named "Mr. Bubba" by the preschool children at First Baptist Church Clinton, walking down the hall when a teacher tells him it's "dress up as who you want to be today."
The teachers then pointed to a little boy who, from head to toe, matched his hero. The preschooler was wearing a red polo with a name tag, blue jeans, a belt with a radio, keys and a phone case attached, a bald cap, a drawn-on beard and glasses propped up on his head to complete the outfit.
When he saw the little boy dressed just like him, he couldn't help but laugh at how perfect the boy's outfit was, all the way down to the phone case and keys attached to the belt. He got down on his knees to take a picture with his doppelgänger, and it was clear the handyman was touched.
I don't know about you, but the video got blurry about halfway through, and it definitely was not from me tearing up at how sweet the moment was.
This video is a great reminder that you never know who you are having an impact on, and we should all be more appreciative of the people around us.
