I absolutely love this story for so many reasons.

First, a kid was riding his bike outside! I love riding my bike, and I'm so glad I learned to enjoy it when I was a kiddo.

But all of us that ride bikes know that falling off is just something that happens on occasion, especially when you're a kid. I think it's beyond sweet that this off-duty Lubbock County Sheriff's officer went out of his way to make this child feel safe and comfortable.

I also love Momma Tara shouting out Officer Bear Johnson. Showing appreciation goes a long way, and I very much believe in supporting your community and getting to know your neighbors and the folks around you that are here to keep us safe.

Thank you so much, Officer Bear!
