About a year ago, a couple with 3 children moved into the apartment next door to me．I never heard any noise from the children, but the parents were always 1 them, in a frightening way．We met often in the hallway when we were coming or going．I always spoke, but the only answer I ever got was a hello from the 4-year-old girl．
I usually go out for breakfast and one day when I returned they were just coming from their apartment and the little girl was holding the door open for the others．I remained in the car doing unnecessary things 2 I wasn't in a hurry．The parents were telling her to get in the car immediately．I looked up and saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for me．
As a handicapped(有残疾的)man, I can't hurry at anything, but I hurried as much as I could and thanked her．She was smiling like a lovely angel．I was so touched but her small act of kindness．That afternoon I was shopping at the K-mart and I saw a white bear．I thought of the 3 and said to myself．“I believe she would like that” so I bought it．
The next day there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and her father．She was so proud of her bear and thanked me like I had never been thanked before．The mother and father both thanked me．
Now when we meet in the hall we all speak, and in a friendly manner I might add．As time passes, I don't hear that shouting as often． 4 , hardly at all．
Last night we had about four inches of snow．I looked out at my car and wondered how I was going to keep my doctor's appointment．
When I opened the outside door, there was my car with all the snow cleaned．I can't express how I felt at that moment．The man next door was the only person I knew in the whole building, so when I saw him the next day．I asked him if he was the good man that cleaned my snow．He said 5 ．He wanted to but his wife said she wanted to do it．
Isn't it amazing how a 4-year-old girl can change so many things for the better? My guardian angel(守护天使)says that good things usually come from 6 ．
