Available for over a year

When 17-year-old Rachel Chapman's prom was cancelled because of the coronavirus pandemic, 7-year-old Curtis, who she babysits, decided to surprise her with his own version. Curtis held a socially distanced dinner and a dance in his back garden for Rachel. He served some of their favourites: apple slices with peanut butter, Chick-fil-A and smoothies. His mother, Elissa Rogers, explained how he came up with the idea. (Photo: Rachel Chapman and Curtis Rogers. Credit: Becky Chapman)
