Merry Christmas, 2011.....The Wildcat

Here is his photo.
That, I might add...he posed for.
so if he is embarassed for now untill kingdom come,
then it is his own fault.

Grandparents: Please don't tell me that I didn't warn you.

Now let me tell you a little bit about this kid hugging the Christmas tree.

He is a freshman.

I refer to him as "Wildcat."

He is an athlete.

I believe that he used to be defined as an athlete by what he accomplished on the court or on the field.

And I wouldn't be off on that at all.

But this last year

We learned what it was like to be

a Role Model

When you were the one on the sidelines.....

Thanks, Coach White.

You have no idea the influence you have had

on our family

thru

the Wildcat.

An injury defined who this kid was for the last half of the season.

But he didn't let that define who he was.

This kid is a leader.

He was able to see that.

From both sides of

the

sideline.

Unfortunately it can take that to show us what we are

What we can be

And the influence we can have to others.

My heart spent the fall season

wearing a jersey

with the # 6 on it.
