Neighbor Heartwarming Response To Little Girl’s Note

A young child noticed that her neighbor had a basketball hoop in their driveway and was eager to give it a try. We are touched by the neighbor’s incredibly kind response.

The girl, Emma, later shared in a letter that she had attempted to ask for permission in person a few times but hadn’t been successful. So, she decided to take a more creative approach and left a traditional “check yes or no” note.

Emma wrote the note on a simple white card:

“Dear neighbor. My name is Emma and I live across the street at 1659. Would it be ok if I shot some hoops on your b-ball hoop after school some days?”

After receiving the note, the neighbor kindly granted Emma unrestricted use of the hoop and simply said, “Have fun!”

This sweet exchange serves as a reminder that even the smallest actions can have a profound impact.
