Train Up A Child

Proverbs 22:6  Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Erik, Veronica and the rest of us stay busy bringing up Emerson in the CORRECT way.  Last fall they took him to the UK Football Fan Day where he got to meet the football players and get some autographs.  His picture ended up on the Tops in Lexington website.





This past weekend UK basketball player Demarcus Cousins was signing autographs at the Wal-Mart in Pikeville.  Another chance to instruct Emerson “in the way he should go” could not be missed so Erik, Veronica, and Emerson dutifully made the pilgrimage to Wal-Mart. 




As Demarcus Cousins was signing his basketball, Emerson, in that all grown up way he talks,  said to him, “Thank you for playing for the Wildcats this year.  We really enjoyed watching you play.”
Demarcus looked at him with a ‘Big Cuz’ smile and said, “Thank You, Little Man.”
Sounds to me like the training is going very well so far.

Emerson is a wonderful little boy, I just hope being around Clyde dont corrupt him, Not everyone can be a boy toy like him.
