Poor Guy :(

This is what Braeden did all day.......(the lump in the bed is him)




This is who he was suppose to spend the day with......

Braeden decided he wanted to play football this fall instead of soccer. We got him registered, and he started practice 2 weeks ago. He loves it but is a little apprehensive. There is a lot to learn and he is the "new guy" on the team. So to my above pictures.......last week he was told that he was picked to go to a camp put togther by Dallas Cowboy,Terrell Owens. He was so excited! It was a 2 day camp from 8:30 in the morning till 3:30 in the afternoon. I was a little nervous to send him but this opportunity doesn't come around very often. So, Yesterday morning we got up bright and early (5:45a.m.) to send him off to Duncanville. When he woke up he said his throat was sore, but I thought it was just because he might have slept with his mouth open. He had no fever so I sent him off with a hug and kiss and told him to have fun. When he got home last night he was beat. All the boys who attended fell asleep in the car on the way home. Braeden said it was so hard. He had a good time though and got to talk to T.O. He even got to try to catch a pass from him. He also saw Marion Barber and Sam Hurd, both Dallas Cowboys. He was so exhausted and his throat was killing him. We didn't think he would be able to go back today, but we told him we would make the decision in the morning. I went to wake him up this morning and he had a fever and his throat was hurting even worse. I felt so horrible for him. He wanted to go back so bad. Today was the day they were going to get pictures and autographs. He sobbed and sobbed. I don't think I have ever felt so bad for him. He wanted to go and just tough it out, but there was no way I could send him in 100 degree heat for 7 hours. He is still feeling bad, but a tiny bit better. Who knows, maybe he will get this opportunity again some day. (sorry for such a long post)
