letter #3...

Handwritten letters have become a favorite in our home.
For some reason this one made my 13 year old as happy as he would have been sitting on the front row of a Utah Jazz game.
Only this was much, much better.

A special package addressed to Alec came yesterday.


A letter, and 142 pair of socks.

The socks. (used for basketball drills)
The letter.


I used to think the world of Kyle Korver. Now, he's just surpassed Paul Milsap in my book.

This mom is truly thankful.

That is so cool that he would take the time and write that too Alec. I am very jealous. The day you meet him think of me and get a signature for me too. You are one special person. Keep up the great work Alec.
