About Me

- auSOMEtistic
- I love the Lord with all my heart, I love my family as much. I think there is no greater joy or satisfaction than to contribute ones time and energy to the enhancement of another persons life. I love this quote from the late Ted Kennedy "You don't have to be a Senator, a Governor, or the President to make a difference, you just have to get involved". I love being involved with my brother's class, and hanging out with him. I believe that everyone is capable of doing something exceptional especially with the encouragement and support from family and friends.
All of the players wives made t-shirts that said " My Friend is auSOMEtistic"

Dare To Dream Day
The one thing I admire the most about Coy is that He is a Dreamer, meaning He is able to vision things differently then they the way they are. What a great quality to have . I wanted to have a special day at my high school where all the kids in Coy's class could be dreamers. I organized the day and called it Dare to Dream Day. I recruited several of my friends around 25 to be exact, we planned out fun games, brought in fun snacks, and spent our last 2 periods of the day in the gym playing games with the kids. Coy's classmates get very little if any time with the regular ed student body at my High School, its just the way it is, mostly safety issues. They sit in their classrooms most days probably dreaming about what it would be like to hang out with some of the basketball players, or soccer players , or baseball players. Today was the Day they got to do that, it was awesome. I love seeing the smiles on their faces. As I am writing this Coy is up in his room replaying the events of the afternoon. I wonder how many of the other kids are doing the same thing? To make a difference in ones life, you just have to get involved. I love you Coy-Boy , and I love spending time with you.
