Well I was one of the pallbearer's at my buddies 2 year old son's funeral today. Really hit home hard because he is identical to my son when he was that age.

Gonna hug my son a little bit tighter from now on and try to do a little bit more than I'm capable of doing but it's all for him.

Gotta keep moving.

Good Lord man thats tough. My sympathies to your buddy. Losing a child has got to be the worst for parents to go through. Never take them for granted.

Haha I'm hoping to get him into shooting competitions as soon as he turns 6! Probably start small with .22Lr target shooting out of a single shot rifle and then get him into bigger calibers the older he gets!

Shooting is a great skill to learn and also very fun. My dad started me at about 8 years old and ive loved it ever since!

You are a lucky man to have such a great family! My respect goes out to you buddy. Teach him a thing or two about the old 12 valve also
