I am the Luckiest

I was born of cool parents, and I had two cool sisters growing up.

Later my parents became attached to two cool step parents. My step mom has two children who are cool, and they have cool spouses.

I have a cool wife and two cool daughters, and a fun son and another child on the way. Maybe two?

I was born in one of the most blessed countries on the earth.

Great state of Indiana.

Attended cool public schools.

And colleges.

Spent two cool years down in Chile on a church mission.

Spent two semester abroads out of the country as a BYU student.

Returned to Indiana after the Utah experience for two cool years.

Taught two years of high school in California, and met my wife in that time. We also had our first child at the end of the second year.

Attended two cool years of Masters program at UCLA.

Spent another two years teaching adult school in San Bernardino.

Have had a great time moving about the country since.

Chile again, Virginia, two training times away from the family in Missouri and Arizona.

And my teams keep me entertained, if not winning championships.

And my knees are healthier than the most dominant sports person in the world, and I am 37.

And I am grateful. And lucky.

And the Celtics are too.
