Proud of dad?
« on: September 16, 2012, 05:46:37 PM »
This is kind of personal, but it is top related.
Some of you know my son Diego, who is now 15.  In spite of all my efforts, he always refused to throw tops (or other skill toys and juggling).  That was "dad thing".   ::)  Well, at school they had to write some essay about themselves.  Surprisingly, he did mention that his dad played tops and even included a link to my 2009 worlds freestyle!  :o  The teacher decided to show the video in class and according to him his classmates were saying afterwards things like: "wow, you have a cool dad!"  :o :o :o YEAH!!!  ;D  ;D

You ARE indeed a cool dude Mr. ta0!
I bet a lot of his classmates will want to visit "Diego's house" and meet his  8)  DAD!

Congrats on the positive words from your son and his class.  You deserve it.  Sometimes nice words from a family are the hardest to get. 

Your top family thinks you are grand.  I am glad to hear some others in San Antonio are verbalizing it, too!
