Last Week's Football Game

Last week we were still in pre-planning but football is in full swing. We have a tradition that ever senior football player is allowed to pick one teacher that has influenced them the most over their time in high school. Wednesday i revived an email that said that I had been chosen, which did not surprise me much since i had some boys form my Youth Group from church that I have had in class and know since he was a young boy, I had assumed he picked me. When I arrived at the game Thursday night it was not the young man that I had know for years but a student I had meet just last year. Apparently he and the other boy both picked me but they did not give it to the one that had know for years. Shocked was one of many words that can describe how i felt, proud would be a better one I had no idea that in one year I had affected someones life so deeply.
