> Kurtis,do you know him?
> >In a supermarket, Kurtis the stock boy, was
> busily
> >working when a new voice came over the asking for a carry out at
> check
> >register 4. Kurtis was almost finished, and wanted to get
> some
> >fresh air, and decided to answer the call. As he approached
> the check-out
> >stand a distant smile caught his eye, the new check out girl was
> beautiful.
> >She was an older woman (maybe 26, and he was only 22) and
> he fell in
> >love. Later that day, after his shift was over, he
> waited by
> >the punch clock to find out her name. She came into the break
> room, smiled
> >softly at him, took her card and punched out, then left. He
> looked at her
> >card, BRENDA. He walked out only to see her start walking up
> the road.
> > Next day, he waited outside as she left the supermarket, and offered her

>
> >a ride home. He looked harmless enough, and
> she
> >accepted. When he dropped her off, he asked if maybe he could see
> her again,
> >outside of work. She simply said it wasn't possible. He
> pressed and
> >she explained she had two children and she couldn't afford a baby-
> sitter, so
> >he offered to pay for the baby-sitter. Reluctantly she
> accepted his
> >offer for a date for the following Saturday. That Saturday night he
> arrived
> >at her door only
> to have
> >her tell him that she was unable to go with him. The baby-
> sitter had
> >called and canceled. To which Kurtis simply said, "Well,
> lets take
> >the kids with us." She tried to explain that taking the children
> was not
> >an option, but again not taking no for an answer, he pressed. Finally
> >Brenda, brought him inside to meet her children. She had an older daughter

>
> >who was just as cute as a bug,
> Kurtis
> >thought, then Brenda brought out her son, in a wheelchair. He was
> born a
> >paraplegic with down syndrome. Kurtis asked Brenda, "I still don't
> understand
> >why the kids can't come with us?" Brenda was amazed. Most
> men would run
> >away from a woman with two kids, especially if one had
> disabilities.
> >Just like her first husband and father of her children did. That evening
> >Kurtis and Brenda loaded up the
> kids, went
> >to dinner and the movies. When her son needed anything Kurtis
> would take
> >care of him. When he needed to use the rest room, he
> picked him up
> >out of his chair, took him, brought him back. The kids loved Kurtis. At
> the
> >end of the
> evening,
> >Brenda knew this was the man she was going to marry and spend the
> rest of her
> >life with. A year later, they were married and Kurtis adopted
> both of her
> >children. Since then they have added two more kids. So what happened to
> the
> >stock boy and check out
> girl?
> >Well, Mr. & Mrs. Kurt Warner, now live in St. Louis, where he is
> employed
> >by the ST.Louis Rams and plays quarterback
