据《每日邮报》报导，年仅1岁的乔瑟夫和卡森是在4月一场骄傲队的足球赛中相识，乔瑟夫的父亲表示，他永远不会忘记儿子当时初见卡森的反应。他回忆道，「当时卡森蹲了下来，对同样没有左手掌的乔瑟夫伸出手臂，示意要他摸一下，在那一刻，他们便建立起了属于他们的友谊。」
Yesterday we had the chance to spend some time with the beautiful and talented @carson.pickett who plays professional soccer for @orlpride in the @nwsl. Carson is part of our @lucky_fin_project family as she is missing her left hand. We have been following Carson since she was playing for @reignfc same city who also drafted our buddy @shaquem_griffin. She was traded to Orlando in Dec, we have been dying to meet her. Thank you to @fox35amy and the Orlando Pride for setting this up. We had the chance to talk with Carson and her parents. Long enough to see the strong spirit she has and the example she portrays on and off the field. What makes Carson different is not her arm but her desire to be the best. Her Dad said to me that one thing that was never allowed in the home were the words "I cant". Carson is an amazingly beautiful woman who stands as a shining example for our children. We will be going to many more Pride games and look forward to seeing Carson do a throw-in. I dare someone to give her a penalty for not getting the ball behind her head. The whole stadium and the Tidd family loves this girl and I would not want to be them. We'll share some more videos of the meet up soon, but this video of hide and seek with their arms is too funny. Such a sweet moment between 2 amazing people. #orlandopride #carsonpickett #tenfingersareoverrated #luckyfinfamily #luckyfinproject #limbdifferenceawareness #limbdifferenceawarenessmonth #strongwomen #differentlyabled #againstallodds #rolemodel #inspire #hideandseek #orlandokids #bigsister #imnotcryingyourecrying @lucky_fin_project @barstoolsports @espn @foxsports @nbcsports @cbssports @theellenshow @todayshow @goodmorningamerica

从那时，乔瑟夫绝不错过任何一场骄傲队的足球赛，两人在今年6月再度于球赛中重逢，他们开心击拳，而这一幕也被卡森的教练贝琪（Becky Burleigh）捕捉下来，并PO在推特上，她写道，「这世界上需要更多这种东西来散播欢乐！」
这张照片截至目前已经被转发了8.9万次、将近4万个爱心，大家纷纷留言表示，「叹为观止的画面」、「真的是太棒了」、「根本像是一幅画」、「这是最甜蜜的事情！」「我的天啊！我的心要爆炸了！」「好温暖.....」、「真是鼓舞人心」。
卡森表示，自己在长大的过程中，从未说出「不能」或是「不是」，反而是试着挑战，她说，「家庭对我来说就是一切，我不会让我的父母失望，我认为就是这样让我永不放弃。」随着卡森的足球生涯开始，她也突然意识到自已可以成为拥有相同经验孩子的榜样，「但自从遇到了乔瑟夫，我才发现自己遇到了新英雄。」
Staying up late this weekend was worth it when you get to cheer on @carson.pickett ! ⚽️ I love fist bumping her.
