SPRING HILL, Tenn. (WTVF) — One of our favorite stories from last year was about a little six-year-old working the register at her parents' butcher shop in Spring Hill.
This story was not only a big hit with you all, but our newsroom loved it too! I've stayed in touch with Abigail's family. They sent photos when she finally lost a tooth that had been bugging her during our first trip. Now, it appears she's been promoted (sort of) at Light Hill Meats and I had to go see it for myself.
“Her being the oldest daughter, she is taking on the responsibility of learning things quickly," said Abigai's mom, Lauren Neale.
We didn't mention this in the first story, but Abigail is the oldest daughter of Ben and Lauren Neale. As far as taking the responsibility, now she's teaching sisters Elizabeth (5) and Sarah (2) how to use the register.
I can keep writing, but everything you need to see is in the player above.

Our viewers are the best! When Hannah McDonald highlighted the plight of Serenity Sumler, so many of you immediately stepped up. Serenity stopped to help a driver after spotting a wreck and was hit by another car, resulting in terrible injuries. Without the funds to pay for physical therapy, she was at a loss. Because of the kindness of others - she now can rehab and get back to school. Best of luck to her as she trains to become a chef!
