Little Boy, Big Hero

Titus Adams's family has a lot to be thankful for this holiday season. On Thanksgiving night, Titus, 7, helped save his mother's life! Their car ran off the road, flipping twice. His mom was knocked unconscious. His sisters, Tiffany, 4, and Tierra, 1, were safe but scared. Titus comforted them, then went for help. He walked a half mile in 23-degree weather to find it—wearing only pajamas and socks! Police say Titus's mom, who is in the hospital, is lucky to be alive. "He's a hero," said Titus's dad, Glenn.
