I'm human, nothing special.....

I passed a little boy in the ER the other day. He smiled at me as I started to walk by where his Mommy was being treated. The closer I got, the bigger his smile got. I heard him say to his Dad.."there's a paramedic daddy, he's my hero". Now I stopped dead in my tracks, I leaned down to him and said "how are you buddy". He turned about as red as red can be. I didn't have one thing to say to him. So I gave him a high five and a hand shake and off I went. That little boy called me his hero. I got to thinking about it, I was that little boy once.
