Two-Year-Old Throws Tea Party For The Police Officer Who Saved Her Life

August 1, 2016

A year ago, Texas police officer Patrick Ray saved young Bexley Norvell from choking on a coin. The girl's lips were blue and he managed to get the coin out by performing a 'finger sweep.'

To thank him, Bexley - now 2 years old - invited him to a tea party.

"Whenever I do ask my children 'what do you want to pray for?' Bexley always says, 'Officer P Ray. Officer P Ray'," Bexley's mother told CBS News.

"We're buddies," Officer Ray said. "I can watch her get married. I can watch her have a family. She could have lost her life that day, and I got super lucky."
