Read this story and try not to cry

By Thomas Farragher Globe Columnist February 07, 2019

<snip>NEWTON – Something small and profound is happening here along the banks of the Charles River. It’s a love story. It’s a story of a little girl who’s deaf.

It’s a story of neighbors who’ve raised their own children and are now embracing a beautiful 2-year-old named Samantha.

It’s a story of 20 neighbors who sit in silence to learn a new language so their littlest neighbor will know what their kids have always known: Community. Friendship. Inclusion.<snip>

popped up and wouldn't let me in. That's fine. Go and goggle the story, you'll get more information there and you won't be blocked. Talk about good neighbors, taking care of each other. Amazing. Edited to add the link I got in via with.
