We spent Sunday and Monday out trying to raise money. We raised a little but it doesn't touch what we need. Colter is learning a lot , and that is one great thing about all this fundraising. We went door to door Sunday here in Spokane, and met some really great people. One man talked to us for quite awhile
explaining his belief in God and how Colter could do good for others with this. At first Colter had no clue what he was talking about. Throughout this conversation the man knelt down to Colters level eye to eye and he
explained what he was talking about. How he believed Colter can teach others to live a good honest life and that God will show him the way. Now we don't go to church but we still talk to Colter about God and what is right and wrong so I think Colter really got what this gentleman was trying to tell him. So at the end he gave him 20 dollars and told Colter he wanted to invest in Colters life to do good and not get caught up in a world with out God. Then he prayed with him to guide Colter in the right direction in life. I thought it was nice to see how some people are concerned about our children's futures. We have met some very interesting people through out this.
A lot of concern about taking him to a city which kind of surprises me , people keep saying oh you don't
want to raise him in California. I don't tell them that's where we are from and why would they even think that,
first off he is just a little boy. Who said anything about moving, and why would we (besides its sunny there)
he is not some star or something he is a little guy who want to go compete for the USA. I don't know were
some of them even come up with what comes out of their mouths. This is a great opportunity and probably
a once in a life time thing. Maybe its just concern for a child because they here about all these child stars
becoming drug addicts , but so do the kids down the street their just not on TV, so you don't hear about
them. As far as loosing their childhood 8 out of 10 people hated their childhood. Again Colter is my baby we wont make him do anything he doesn't want to so don't worry ,if he wants to keep going he can ,if he don't then we are done!
