Punt and Pass a Thon 9-12-09

To raise money for the organization, they have a punt and pass-a-thon. Trev didn't have time to raise a lot of money, but he participated and got his jerseyHe is on the Cardinals team. He will be # 54. According to his coach, that is a great # to have. The Chicago Bears Brian Urlacher is #54. Trevor is thriving in football so far and is excited to participate. It helps that he has many friends from school in it. The organization is great. All boys get to play in every game and on offense and defense. Also, every player gets a trophy at the end of the season. This has been so good so far for his confidence and self-esteem. We are so proud of him.

He is doing very well in school. Being in football has been an incentive to get his homework done right away and keeps him motivated. Not only that, but he is worn out at night which is good for him. Funny thing is, we found we dont need to medicate him for football. We gave him his pill for the competition and he had no energy and was like a zombie there. Now we know he uses up all of that energy just playing football. He is also learnign self-control when he is off his meds, telling us he will "keep it together" and he has! I could not be more proud. I hope he really likes football and continues to thrive. WE are in a HIGHLY supportive football area. The whole town is big into football and highschool is a HUGE thing. Plus, right now, an NFL first round draft pick and a MIZZOU starter are former Bonne Terre boys who also were Jr Raiders just like Trev.

Trevor threw the ball 21 mph. Not too shabby for a rookie!

LOL, for this competition, I told him to pretend it was Logan and Connor he was dragging.

Look at that arm!!!!!! And Check out spiral! I see a future rocket man!
