Well you will never believe it but today Matthew won this pickup in a drawing from school for exemplary attendance. Many of you are thinking ok what's the joke. No joke, we can hardly believe it ourselves. Matthew is so excited. This truck was a project in the auto shop class at the high school last year, so the students are the ones who did all the customizing. This is a really big step for Matthew and we pray God uses it to help mature him and help him realize how much God cares for him. Did I mention Matthew is really excited.
