A little girl got a Christmas miracle after she took a step of faith, wrote her wishlist, and attached it to a balloon.

The balloon on my property

With the intention to free the balloon, the man soon noticed a piece of paper that was tied to its string. He said that though his Spanish was not good, he could make out what was written on the paper to mean a wishlist.

Though Heiss did not know where the balloon flew in from, he later made out the name of the kid who wrote it to be Dayami and so got intrigued to find her.

After taking the notes home, his wife whose Spanish was better read out what the little girl wanted for Christmas which were a dollhouse, art supplies, and clothes, Washington Post reports.

Social media helped

To find the girl, he posted the note on Facebook and that did the trick. A day after he made the post, someone reached out to him that they had found the girl and her family.

Heiss got excited at the development so he went straight to a supermarket and bought everything on the girl’s list.

On meeting the girl, the man and his wife realised that she had been writing letters to Santa Claus for years.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a young man, Bear Taliferro Jr, put a big smile on the face of a family after overhearing their conversation in a supermarket he went shopping.

He said that he was in the shop when a little girl asked her mother what is wrong when she saw her mother’s eyes heavy with tears.

In response and with an emotion-laden voice, the mother told the girl that they cannot afford to eat that night.

Touched by how bad their situation is, the young man asked the mother to grab whatever they want in the mall.
