Happy Birthday, Toxey!
Arkansas State troopers helped salvage a 10-year-old’s birthday after none of the boy’s classmates showed up to his birthday party. The troopers arrived with presents and cake and kept the little boy entertained for hours.
Toxey Andrews of Hot Springs Village, Arkansas, was turning 10 years old and invited his entire class of 21 students to his birthday party. But on April 2, the day of his party, no one showed up, compelling his mother, Angela Andrews, to post on Facebook, pleading with parents not to ignore birthday party invitations.
“On Saturday night, I knew no one was coming, and I posted on Facebook just kind of like an outcry to parents. Just please if your kids get invited to birthdays take them,” Andrews said.
