As I thought about this weeks words, that are more and more difficult to come up with ones I haven’t used before, I thought about my son coming to the end of his High School years. I think sometimes we felt the battles that a parent goes through to make certain their child gets the best education and understanding from a school is like a cave. It can be long, dark, and confusing. But you keep climbing to reach that light, knowing if you survive it’s well worth it. Then you kick them out in a dorm and say good luck. Not really, although he’s told me he wants to do like I did and life on my own for the last two years of university. His mother doesn’t know that so don’t say anything.

Then I thought about we, as parents, could have just caved to the the disfunction of a system only geared to one type of student. Zach is a classified gifted student that has been tracked since early middle or late elementary school by Duke University. Genius? I won’t tell you his IQ or SAT scores, but soon as the scores came out one of the best schools in the country got in touch. So we didn’t cave. We fought. We lived for 12 years of aggravation and headaches. And the light is there. Just 6 more weeks.

Here in the South we have something called Blackberry Winter. It’s the cold snap late in spring while blackberries are in bloom. Not sure if they are in bloom right now but it sure is cold. But then again it is March. The problem is, in this region it’s 70 one day and 31 the next.

Some of you probably aren’t fans of College Football here in the US. Football as in American Football. Today is our national championship game and my alma mater is one of the teams, The University of Georgia Bulldogs, they won last year. Their opponents are the surprise team of the year who has one heck of a quarterback, basically they guy who captains the team to score. That team is the TCU Horned Frogs. Our quarterback has been an inspiring story and if we can win this game, no doubt there will one day be a movie about him. No one thought he could make it as a starter for the DAWGS, but he proved them wrong. In a BIG way.
