AUBwins 10,104 Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 It is nice knowing that we have genuinely great people in this world and several happen to be on this little message board. What a great community we have here. A comforting feeling that any one of us will have support should we need it. Thank you. My goodness @bigbird we need video when the reveal is given to Little Bird. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My goodness @bigbird we need video when the reveal is given to Little Bird. I'm working on it. My wife took it and is having issues sending it. It's subtle, he rarely shows his emotion. He just very quietly said, That's awesome. After she stopped the video, he just sat there and asked, "dad, what do I say". I still had no words. He was really blown away. When she gets home I'll get it uploaded. 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it get it off my credit card. I am not the Jeffrey Lee recruiter guy. I'm just a guy that graduated from Auburn, played baseball there and love those who love Auburn. I have been talking to Bird for about 2 years about his sons' challenges. I just wanted to help a little bit. For future reference, there is a box you can click that will just show your name as "Anonymous". That's what I did. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So happy to see him with a smile on his face Y'all are the ones that put it there and, as a dad, I can't tell you how uplifting seeing it was. Today he has been randomly asking, what about this or what about that? Each time with a big ol' grin. He's trying to process it still, but you see glimpses of excitement and hope. I'm not trying to be sappy, but it's done me good to see it and I owe it all to y'all. So unbelievably grateful! 2 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posts like this one for bird are what have made this site great over the years. We all have our bickering and going back and forth, but things like this shows what truly matters and it has def been a refresher for me this week. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
