And it will be with him the rest of his life. Who knows what that incident may do in the future to help him to decide on a positive course of action to make something of himself. You never know.
I certainly remember my parade participations and surely wasn't as stellar as that.

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I�m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I�ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I�ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
