My friend Garrett is really strong. He is a swimmer and does a lot of weightlifting. Just by looking at him though, you wouldn't be able to tell that underneath his shirt he's completely ripped.
A local news station featured him a little while ago. I watched it. Two things:
1)There was footage of him making a baby laugh. Adorable.
2) His mom said he always waves to her when she goes to one of his weightlifting or swim meets. He always acknowledges that she's there and is happy to see her.
When I went to Garrett's swim meet the other day, I climbed the stairs to find a place to sit with the rest of the public. The public seating at the pool is kind of on a balcony of sorts. I watched as Garrett's parents sat right in front of me, not realizing I was there. Garrett passed down below, then looked up at noticed his parents waving. He waved back with a huge smile on his face.
Most kids would slightly nod their head and then act as if nothing happened. Not Garrett.
Then he noticed me sitting behind them. He saluted me and cracked a smile.
He's a good kid.
