Nate and I both attended Christian School while growing up, and it has been really neat to have our boys in a Christian school the last few months. When I was in school every year faithfully we had a walk-a-thon and we would go around and collect sponsors for our walk, funny thing is I never knew what that money was going to, now as a parent that is the first thing I check out. Well my boys were in their first, we now call it, “Race for Education” and the money goes to help provide scholarships to our school, well I thought that was a good enough reason to support it.
I volunteered to help out during the time my boys would be walking, and Brady was up first. That little boy tore it up, and he walked 11 laps, each lap is a fourth of a mile, I was so proud of him. I thought oh, boy when Riley gets here he will probably only walk 5, so I told him that Brady had walked 11 to see if I could rally up some brotherly competition.
I took Brady with me to Riley’s so He walked a few with his brother raising his total up to I think 13 laps, well, my oldest son surprised me and he walked 17 laps, he was so excited and I was very proud of him too. Over all it was a gorgeous spring day and everyone had a wonderful time and everything was a success. I haven’t found out how much they raised yet, but I am sure it did very well.
