The Skip

Ever since Christian was born we have called him Skippy. I can't even remember why. While we were in the hospital on the day of his birth he was entranced by the sports on T.V. and his obsession has only gotten more intense. He is a nut. I don't mind however because he is such a smart boy with so many talents. He is a great at piano, baseball, and chess. He loves learning and is always striving to be the best. At the same time he is often praised for his good manners and kind heart. Our struggles with Christian are few and far between because he tries so hard at all things (except cleaning his room). He and Chris are the best of friends. Chris does not enjoy it when Christian is at a friends house playing especially if a good game is on. That child knows more useless sports information than anyone I know. This year has been a good one for him, he had the opportunity to meet Josh Brown, Seneca Wallace, and Bobby Ingram from the Seahawks. Two of them signed his hat that NEVER leaves his head. Christian recently finished alter boy training and he looks like a little angel when he is up there. The flood was a little difficult for him and has brought on a few nightmares which is unusual for him. It was the first time his structured life was a little haywire so I am not surprised. He is amazingly mature and I know he can handle it. Well everyone pray that the Seahawks go to the Super Bowl so Christians dream can come true.
