Birthday surprise

Postby pastorables » November 16th, 2008, 3:00 pm

We took our son to an area hotel with an indoor pool over the weekend as a birthday present. He loves to swim.

As an added surprise, which we didn't know, the Ole Miss football team were there also. We collected several player autographs and even met Coach Houston Nutt on an elevator. He cordially signed for us also. Our son was elated. He seems to be one of the most favored children I've ever seen. :) It seems that everywhere we go things like this happen to him.

I think the favor carried over to the team also. :wink: They became bowl eligible this weekend for the first time since 2003 and scored the largest margin of victory (59 - 0) since the 1960's.

Congratulations to your son, and to the Rebels. I am glad to see them bowling again. Nutt is a very good coach. They'll be flat out dangerous next season.

God's favor rests on him, I am sure! I have at least one child that I have witnessed these special blessings happening to also. It is very special, praise the Lord.
..I press on to take hold of that
for which Christ took hold of me.
