My son participated in the Special Olympics basketball tournament this past weekend. He went out of town overnight with his fellow classmates to participate. He was so excited when he returned because they won and he scored 6 points. Woohoo! I was thrilled for him but sad because I didn't get a chance to see him actually play. He participates every year and this photo above is from the year before when he competed in the track and field event that he came in first in. The photo above however, is of the adult women 100m dash. Watch them go!
If you aren't a supporter of Special Olympics, I highly encourage that you look into it. It truly makes a difference in the lives of such truly wonderful people.
