And just like that this season of our lives are over. Today the boys played in the Dick's Sporting Goods Optimist Bowl Game, they walked away with a win but little do they know they walked away with so much more than that. We made some great friends over the past 3 years, (4 years for many). We have amazing coaches who have given so much of their time to these boys. They have taught them more than just game, they were the launching pad for these young men and I could not have asked for a better group.
Tristan began tackle football being hesitant on the defensive line. "He needs to be meaner they said, at least on the field. We want them mean on the field and nice off the field." After three years of growth I could not be more proud of this young man. I watched him grow from the last person in the sprint to the one leading the pack, he would be the strongest to tackle someone and the first to help them up. He began playing defense some of the game to playing both sides of the ball almost the entire game. He supports his team and his coaches throughout the game. I love you Tristan and I am excited for the next chapter.
