There's good news tonight. Often the good news doesn't get as much attention as the bad. So every Saturday, we highlight the many people who spread joy and love. Jose Dias Balart has just some of those stories this week.

Come up here, Charlie. When sports legend Deion Sanders comes calling, you know that's something special. What about a scholarship? Yes. The Colorado Buffalo's coach honoring junior running back Charlie Offred Hall with a full athletic scholarship.

Charlie also named the team Spring Player, celebrating with players, his parents, and, of course, Coach Prime.

Charlie, you better be out of here. Yeah.

And talk about a promposa. Iowa high school junior Annie Schlarman got a dozen friends who all decided to take her out on prom night. Together, they celebrated an evening full of fun, including ice cream and even ax throwing. For her and Mom Sue, that invite and inclusion meant the world.

I just always hoped that she'd have these types of experiences. And so as a parent, especially of a child with a disability. It just brought me so much joy.

It was an incredible moment to me. And there's a baby boom at the Sheriff's Department in Boom County, Kentucky. That's Deputy and first-time dad, Brenan Dills, with his new baby girl. But he's not the only one. Deputy Christian Foster's a new dad, too. And so is Jacob Bolton. But get a load of this. They're just a few of the more than a dozen law enforcement parents to welcome little ones in the last year or so. And caps off to this new Golden Gate University graduate, Marielos Woods. This mom of two finally getting her associate's degree in general education after years of hard work and putting family first. It wasn't just Marielos who was feeling pride. Take a look at the emotional reaction from her six-year-old son, Leo, who was sitting with dad Will. Oh, no. But what's wrong?

I love to go. It's happy tears, dad. Oh, my goodness. Really happy tears? It is.

What was it like for you to see that?

Amazing.

I was able to show my kids that hard work pays off.

It's happy tears, dad.

But seeing that Leo Got to understand why I was sacrificing time away from them. It just makes the whole thing worth it.

Marios, are you about to reach the peak of your American dream?

I think so. All of my dream involves doing the best I can for my kids and for my family.
