Star Struck

Brock became a little star struck on Saturday. After an awesome game, we went to Joe Willy's to have a lunch. When we walked in, a man was standing in line in front of us. Michael and Brock went to the restroom to wash Brock's hands and I noticed all the kids were walking up to this man to get his autograph. When Michael returned, I asked him who he was. He smiled and said Marion Barber, running back for the Dallas Cowboys. Brock, who is in awe of any sports figure, became star struck. As a parent and a fan, I can say this this man was extremely friendly to every kid that approached him. He shook each one of their hands, took time to get their names and pose for pictures, eventhough he was trying to eat his lunch. We took our picture of Brock in line and then got Addison to get in one after we all finished lunch. This Cowboy has won over 4 more fans....he is more than an athlete. He was a Christian (notice the shirt) and he was a positive role model for our aspiring athlete.
