Being supportive.

If you would have told me that I, let alone my child, would be sporting navy and gold in support of Georgia Tech, ever, I would've called you a bold-faced liar and probably would have stomped on your foot and maybe even pulled your hair. I stood corrected two seasons ago, and continue to do so. Unfortunately, T had his third major shoulder surgery and has been red-shirted this season...in true thoughtful Tyler fashion, he is using this time to be philanthropic. Tech has a program called Jackets Give Back and in recent years, they have picked one home game to collect donations to help a less fortunate family during Christmas time. Tyler has taken the reigns and brought the program to a new level. They will be collecting donations during every single home game this year so they will be able to help out many more children, instead of just one family. We knew we wouldn't be able to stay for the game with Cason, but we definitely wanted to help Tyler in any way we could. What better way than to solicit your child? People give money to sweet, innocent baby faces. Renee taped a poster to the front of Cason's stroller and off we went. I think we collected almost $400 in less than two hours. Not bad!

After we got home, Cason was exhausted. He took a nap and then his friend Brayden came over to play. I use the term play loosely. Mostly they just stared at each other and then it was time for Cason to get a bath and go to bed. Nevertheless, they had fun, playing!
