Watch out...here I come!

The video shows Luke's new trick of the week...riding his big wheel. Sorry it is sideways...not as tech savvy as I would like to be, and my camera changed settings, not sure how to fix that one either...bear with me. Now, we tried to get him to ride this many, many months ago, but no luck. I brought it out again on Monday, and since then he has been riding it up and down our halls. Once, again lefty leg poses a problem when it tries to turn it, but we velcro it to the pedal to try and stop that. Mike is working on "adapting" his old bike to see how he does on that. Go Luke...we are so proud of you!!!

On another note....how about those Cardinals...they made it all the way to the Super Bowl. Have you seen what their slogan is..."Believe in now!." I love it. If you need a reason to root for the Cardinals...read this...thanks to my friend Holly for passing it along:

In a supermarket, Kurtis the stock boy, was busily working when
> a new voice came over the loud speaker asking for a carry out at
> register
> 4. Kurtis was almost finished, and wanted to get some fresh air,
> and decided to answer the call. As he approached the check-out stand a
> distant smile caught his eye, the new check-out girl was beautiful. She
> was an older woman (maybe 26, and he was only 22) and he fell in love.
>
> Later that day, after his shift was over, he waited by the punch
> clock to find out her name. She came into the break room, smiled softly
> at him, took her card and punched out, then left. He looked at her card,
> BRENDA. He walked out only to see her start walking up the road. Next
> day, he waited outside as she left the supermarket, and offered her a
> ride home. He looked harmless enough, and she accepted. When he dropped
> her off, he asked if maybe he could see her again, outside of work. She
> simply said it wasn't possible.
>
> He pressed and she explained she had two children and she
> couldn't afford a baby-sitter, so he offered to pay for the baby-sitter.
> Reluctantly she accepted his offer for a date for the following
> Saturday. That Saturday night he arrived at her door only to have her
> tell him that she was unable to go with him. The baby-sitter had called
> and canceled. To which Kurtis simply said, "Well, let's take the kids
> with us."
>
> She tried to explain that taking the children was not an option,
> but again not taking no for an answer, he pressed. Finally Brenda,
> brought him inside to meet her children. She had an older daughter who
> was just as cute as a bug, Kurtis thought, then Brenda brought out her
> son, in a wheelchair. He suffered a severe brain injury at 4 months old.
>
> Kurtis asked Brenda, "I still don't understand why the kids
> can't come with us?" Brenda was amazed. Most men would run away from a
> woman with two kids, especially if one had disabilities - just like her
> first husband and father of her children had done. Kurtis was not
> ordinary
> - - - he had a different mindset.
>
> That evening Kurtis and Brenda loaded up the kids, went to
> dinner and the movies. When her son needed anything Kurtis would take
> care of him. When he needed to use the restroom, he picked him up out of
> his wheelchair, took him and brought him back. The kids loved Kurtis. At
> the end of the evening, Brenda knew this was the man she was going to
> marry and spend the rest of her life with.
>
> A year later, they were married and Kurtis adopted both of her
> children. Since then they have added two more kids.
>
> So what happened to Kurtis the stock boy and Brenda the
> check-out girl? Well, Mr. & Mrs. Kurt Warner now live in Arizona , where
> he is currently employed as the quarterback of the National Football
> League Arizona Cardinals and has his Cardinals in the hunt for a
> possible appearance in the Super Bowl. Is this a surprise ending or
> could you have guessed that he was not an ordinary person.
>
> It should be noted that he also quarterbacked the Rams in Super
> Bowl XXXVI. He has also been the NLF's Most Valuable Player twice and
> the Super Bowl's Most Valuable Player.
