Neither hubby nor I are good at speaking in front of a group. So I decided to frame his favorite picture from when he was little with an old truck my husband was restoring, he has always loved this pic for some reason and wanted it in his Sr ad and Sr video at church anyway I am attaching the pic. and I thought I could just read what is on the pic that night. I think if you detach it to your computer you will be able to read it...the font shows up really dark, but is softer when printed....anyhoo here is what I put on it, and I know that you don't know him, but as Mom's do you have any suggestions or changes for me?????
