It's Wrestling Season!



I want to see you game, boys, I want to see you brave
and manly, and I also want to see you gentle and tender.
~T. Roosevelt


Since his dad took him to wrestling sign-ups and bought him his new wrestling shoes, Aiden has a new-found resolve to become stronger and has shown great strides in his motivation to exercise alongside Dad. He realizes wrestling will present challenges with strength and ability, and he's ready to refine himself. (Hopefully the zeal remains constant.)

Wrestling will present opportunities for growth in agility and strength, but most importantly, it will allow for opportunities to handle victory, accept defeat...and a self-mastery that will prove important in all areas of his youthful life...

We can all be thankful for such opportunities.

The boy who is going to make a great man must not make up his mind merely to overcome a thousand obstacles, but to win in spite of a thousand repulses and defeats. ~T. Roosevelt
