For love of the game

Kale,

As long as we can remember, you have lived for “the game.” Puzzles, Monopoly, Clue, football, poker, chess, baseball, risk, cards, basketball… the list goes on. Over the last 17 years, you have taught us many invaluable things…

Many different parts are needed to make a whole.

Winning and losing both require humility.

Listening and observing are sometimes the most important skills.

There is no I in team, we truly are better together.

Toughness is a mindset.

There’s a reason patience takes time to learn.

And finally….

Do not overlook what seems small. (Beware of the power in owning Australia!)

We know you will face many more challenges ahead in life and you are “ready to roll!” We are proud of the way you play the game.

Love ya bud! Mom & Dad
