So last night was Cardinal Gibbons Homecoming Game and out came the Homecoming Court. There were 8 nominees and one of the boys was not your average Senior. He was bigger, had a different walk, a bounce in his step, etc. From my seat, I suspected he had special needs. He was chosen As the Homecoming King ( over all the football players and jocks) and I heard a different rejoice and parents say thats so nice. His parents were BEAMING and everyone seemed elated he was KING. He was very taken back also. So when we get in the car, I asked my son about him. His first comment was oh yeah he is SOOOO nice. When I probed him about the young man he said he voted for him and just he was so nice. Impressions: 1) how amazing that NICE was the first descriptive. 2) Kids dont use labels! 3). In a selfie induced generation, to come together and lift that young man up is touching. Im proud of those kids for making the right choice!!!! #morethanjustaschool. #chiefpride #rightchoice.
