It’s gonna be a great day! Right after I hit the publish button for this post I’m head’n out the door with Major, my five year old grandson. We’re going to meet two of my golfing friends at Plantation to play a round of golf. Jim and Carter don’t mind having Major join us, and Major really enjoys the game. He’s no Tiger, but he has a lot of fun, and he knows how to behave himself on the course.
Jim, Carter and I will tee off and if no one is behind us Major will tee it up too. Once he’s hit we’ll take off to play our next shot and I’ll just tell Major we’ll see him on the green. He hits and runs, and hits and runs, until he gets to the green, and then he will putt out right along with us. I love it. Jim and Carter enjoy watching him too, and they comment on his discipline, and manners. He has been taught to say yes sir and no sir. He knows how to carry on a conversation with adults, and how to show the proper respect to them.
Yup, it’s gonna be a great day. You know I don’t want to rush time, but I’m looking forward to the day when Major, Ranger, and I can go spend the day playing golf together for real. Shoot, I might even let the boy’s dads come along. Hey, come to think of it that’d be even better, cause that way I wouldn’t have to pay. I’d make the dad’s tote the load just for having the privilege of being with the boys and me.
Till next time,
