I can only imagine how long it must have taken him to accomplish those feats. And wouldn’t want to be his mother. How many times did he come home bleeding and/or with broken bones? You got to love the determination, though!
Amazing. 🙂 Thanks for the link.
Beautiful … truly, it takes courage to get up after you fall and do it all over again.
Thanks.
