Rural Carrier Candace Rogge was parked recently in Rupert, ID, when a 5-year-old came up to her vehicle.

“My grandpa’s not home. I don’t know where to go,” the child told Rogge.

After finding out where the child’s mother worked, Rogge was able to contact her.

The mother arrived immediately to pick up the child.
