If you've ever met my Soldier then you know at least one thing about him to be true.
The kid is a COLTS FAN!
I found a Marvin Harrison jersey at the Goodwill that fit him and he proceeded to wear it until the back read "Harriso" then until it said "Harris". I tried to pry it from his hands but he would not hear of it.
I found another one at the Goodwill. Really, the EXACT same one. (Thanks God!) Now he has two to wear and I have had to develop a new system in his closet so that I can keep him from wearing them every day. Without our new system he would be wearing a Marvin Harrison jersey EVERY DAY!
He has posters hanging in his room of the colts team and coach.
He has their schedule memorized and scores of all the games for the last several years.
Last year we found out half way through the year that he had a book called Blue Heaven checked out of the library and he kept renewing it over and over while there was a waiting list of 17 kids wanting the book. It is a book about the year the colts won the superbowl.
He has figurines of the Colts players.
And he was happy to have surgery when he had it done because he was having it done at Peyton Manning Children's Hospital.
I am telling you the kid is a fan!!!
He is a shy kid but if you talk with him it will not take him long to divulge his love for the Colts to you.
Just about EVERYTHING about him shouts of that love.
EVERYTHING!!!
So, when I sat down the other night after putting the kids to bed I was not surprised to see this...

Shoot! I thought I knew where you were going with this. I was smug the whole time I was reading it. I thought there would be something about how great it would be if we loved God with the same zest. If people knew one thing about us it would be our love for colts...worn out Bibles...holes on our knees from praying... Dang! That's what pride will do to ya.
This is your sister. I like your bedroom. I can't believe superheroes hair. Cuteness.
