Breken is sitting with our Taylor Ducks quarterback, Jeremy Synder, talking about football. Now, our house is all about football. We are huge Nebraska and Oklahoma and Taylor fans....but honestly, any football is great football. So, when the opportunity presents itself to talk football....we talk football.
I thought this picture was amazing. I was able to sit for a second before Sunday school and hear the conversation that was happening between a 6 year old and a Senior. They were talking about football. Both were engaged and both appeared to be invested in the conversation. I even asked Jeremy if Breken was making sense and he smiled and said yes. This made my heart happy and made me realize how fortunate we are to be surrounded by such wonderful people. Jeremy did not have to sit there and talk to Breken, but he chose too. He chose to sit there and listen to a 6 year old boy and make him feel as if he were the only person in that room. Breken has not stopped talking about Jeremy and has asked me several times to just text him and have him come over. Breken even asked if he could invite Jenna, Jeremy's sister...you know so Anistin could have someone to be with:) We love Miss Jenna too!
Jeremy may or may not know this, but he has left a lasting impression on Breken and me. He is an example that I pray my son continues to look up too and follow. Jeremy plays for a great group of coaches and players. I have been able to get to know them and I smile as I think of how well they represent Taylor, their school, their community and their families. I am so proud to stand next to my coach who speaks so highly of all of these players and I am proud to know that these examples are the ones my son and possibly daughter want to follow. Thank you God for your abundant gifts and many blessings.
