Yikes! Spikes!

After begging me, working his butt off and giving his heart to cross country this season I got Riggs some spikes to run in...they had to be ordered and they came in the mail today!!! Riggs was so happy and beaming from ear to ear when he saw them after school! We took them to practice tonight and after practice proper he put them on and took a lap...to try them out. It made him feel so good that a few of the older boys came up to him to tell him they liked his spikes. These shoes were, in a way, a right of passage for him...he can run with the big boys now! He is so cute...hard work and success look good on this kid!
