A YOUNG BOYS DREAM!

Recommended Posts

Hi guys- I shared with you the pictures of Jacob, one of my grandsons playing football in the 4th grade in Indianapolis. Remember?

He and his brother, Damon ,along with my 2 grandsons Trevor & Tyler. that I am providing Foster care for, are the "light of my life". When the skies are dark-seeing them and hearing their laughter brighten my day immeasurably. My adult grandson Lance, is my co-Foster care provider. He is my right hand man, especially when these old joints don't want to keep up with the younger ones. Lance has had his 15 minutes of fame also-he played football and wrestled for Constantine Michigan. He was state champion a few times and went on to wrestle for team USA in Germany. The other day I was trying to find some way to show these guys what they mean to me. Then it hit me-I contacted an old teamate of mine,

now living in California-as usual he came thru with flying colors!

He sent each of the boys a Hall of Fame Placard ,addressed in their name, signed by him. Here is a pic of Lances-

A very proud moment for them and you Al, and how special it was for your old friend to come through that way for the Boys. You and he are a real class act. :dunno:
