"This year he started kindergarten and it has been very difficult," they said. "For his 6th birthday he didn't have any friends he wanted to invite to his party. 'They don't like me,' he said. It broke my heart."
Easton's story made its way to Laura Greene and Jessica Keeney.

Happy birthday, kid! We'll get you a ride in an airplane for your seventh.
