Jonathan Armstrong Update
Yesterday I wrote how sad it was for it to be Jonathan’s last high school soccer game. Today I would like to say how proud I am of the manner in which Jonathan handled himself last night. Jonathan cheered for his team, volunteered to be ball boy, and encouraged his teammates throughout the game.
At the end of the game, Jonathan asked the other team to join him for prayer at midfield. So my last image of Jonathan and his soccer season is this picture. Jonathan, who did not get to play in his last game, leading the prayer with the team that just beat his school. His maturity in this situation was refreshing and uplifting to his dad. Then I witnessed his teammates hugging and slapping Jonathan. It really ended well!

You should be a very proud Dad. And I really appreciate Jonathan.
