Last night, Caleb participated in his first Middle School Pep Rally.

That’s all it took:
I get the feeling that I am about to watch a movie, one I have been waiting and waiting to watch. I am in the chair, the lights have lowered, and my hand is aiming at the popcorn bucket. Chills….
Oh, and they have the BEST cheerleader too:
