One day I was talking to Cole's preschool teacher and she was telling me about Cole's journal that he wrote that day where Cole drew a picture of himself and two of his favorite BYU basketball players, JT and Lee. So when I told Chad about it, he decided he was going to take Cole to a practice to meet them. (Sometimes, I think Cole will grow up not appreciating some of the perks that his Dad's job provides. To him, going to games and practices and meeting BYU athletes is fun, but not unusual. However, he finally made a friend at preschool that might make him understand just how cool his Dad's job can be. This friend comes from a family of big BYU fans, so when Chad told me he was thinking about taking Cole to a basketball practice, I suggested he take his friend with him also.)So Chad did take the two boys to practice and they watched practice for a while and then they got to go down and take pictures on the court and talk to the players.
They even took their journals and had the players sign them. Another one of the players even drew himself in the picture as well, which instantly made him one of Cole's new favorite players!
The players were very good to the boys and Cole talks about them a lot more now then he did before. His friend's Mom also told me that it made his whole year!
