Then and Now

Last night I went to my little brother semi-final football game. He goes to Aledo High School which is right outside of Weatherford. I stunk down onto the field just to get a picture together and my dad just emailed it to me and it blows my mind how big he is! He is taller then me and just towers over me. He is almost 18 which means I am close to 30! That is so hard to believe, it feels like I should be almost 18 not him.




During the game the quarterback for the other team had a leg injury and laid on the field for awhile and then was carried off the field. That scene is all to familar for Bryan and my parents! He tour is ACL in a summer game as a an in going freshmen in high school, which caused him not to play that year. In the spring game 2009 he was tackled and broke his leg so bad that he laid on the field roughly 30 minetes waiting for the ambulance to get to the Aledo field all the way from Fort Worth! Needless to say he spend his entire Sophomore year recovering from breaking his leg and he now has rods is his leg. How many people can say that have accomplished overcoming those type of injuries all before 18! Not me!! There is always a reason for everything and looking back on myself I am really thankful for tough stuff because it made being an adult just a little easier! Hopefully he will be able to say the same thing in 10 years....that will be mean I will be close to 40!!! OMG!!!
