On our flight home we had a layover in Houston. Walking toward our gate I heard a familiar voice call out my name. Now, I had just been traveling all over the world and was not expecting anyone to know me!! It happened to be a much loved coach from Jacob's middle school, Harshman. It was Coach V.
When you look back on your life there are certain people that stand out in your mind. They may be coaches, teachers, or friends. Coach V is one of those people. I don't know how many kids he has had contact with but I know there will be a string of kids that refer back to their school day experiences and say, "If it hadn't been for Coach V believing in me...I wouldn't be were I am today!"
Seeing Coach V was part of our transitioning back home. It was a sweet reminder of all the good things we like about our life here in Indy!
We give thanks for Coach V and all the other adults who make a difference in the lives of kids.
