WTMJ’s Wis. Morning News defines an EVERYDAY HERO as “an average Jon/Jane Doe who, when they woke up one morning, had no idea they’d be saving a life.”

In Strasburg, Colorado:
A toddler was tested against his fear of the dark but was brave enough to help his great-grandmother after she had a serious fall, reported 9News KUSA TV.
Three-year-olds do not always follow directions and will sometimes do what they should not, but when Bridger Peabody, 3, needed to listen most, he did.
“If Bridger wasn’t there, I don’t know what I would have done,” his great-grandmother Sharon Lewis said.
While walking into the home with Bridger one night, Lewis tripped and hit her head on the cement steps. She couldn’t get up and realized her cellphone was still in the car (on the other side of the house).
Bridger was brave enough to walk into the darkness, find the phone in the car, and bring it to his G-G. Thank you little Bridger for being an EVERYDAY HERO!
