Ireta Marie Reeves, Dillon’s stepmother, was proud of her stepson’s heroic actions, and she owes it all to Jesus for giving Dillon the wisdom in performing a “brave and swift action” in a time of emergency.

I get paid over 190$ per hour working from home with 2 kids at home. I never thought I'd be able to do it but my best friend earns over 10k a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless. Here's what I've been doing..

AND GOOD LUCK.:)
