Here is what I wrote to him:<br> Coach Brooks, I have always held you in high esteem as a coach and as a man. But it is your example as a father that I cherish most about our acquaintance. I will always remember looking down at your son Craig in his crib when I stayed in your home. I was overcome and lifted by the Holy Spirit. <br>You see, at this same time I also had a son who was just a baby in a crib. My son, Mark, was healthy. Steve s son was born without eyes or an esophagus. In addition, Craig s brain was not fully functional nor would it ever be normal. It was suggested that Craig be placed under institutional care where he wasn t expected to live very long. Some even hinted at just letting little Craig pass on. However, to Steve and his wife Carol, their son was special and God s gift to them. Craig would be raised at home and be greatly loved. I was filled with emotion and gratitude for two things: First, for my son being healthy and second, for Steve s wonderful example. <br>On the recommendations of Dr. Charley Howell, Craig went through several operations and survived. Recently, Coach Brooks gave me an update and sent me a photo of his son. Craig will be 17 this June; my son Mark will turn 17 in July. Craig can hold hands with his dad and walk around the track. He smiles and can even say a few words. Steve credits his wife Carol as the one who has made Craig s life what it is today.  She has done all of the hard work, he said.  Craig s special ed teacher April has also been a true miracle worker. <br>As I looked at the photo and pondered over life s bigger picture, I reflected upon the importance of gratitude and families.<br>I finished my letter to Steve:  I know that in the afterlife Craig s body and mind will be restored. I know he will thank you for being the father that you are. Families are a forever thing. Later, Steve called me and told me he has the same feelings. <br>It s a good time now to remember our families and treasure them. Time to take a few moments to think beyond our everyday problems and focus on the big picture. <br><br>Time to be grateful.<br>is role seriously. "You have to let these athletes understand what they can bring to the program," says Madden. How has he done? "Two years ago we had the number-one recruiting class in the nation, last year we had the number-three class, and this year we're likely to ave either the number-one or number-two class in the nation. We're getting a lot of tremendous athletes in our program and our coaches are doing a great job beating the bushes trying to find the best athletes to come to Texas. And it doesn't hurt that our facilities are second to none in the country. It's a great outlook for us." <br>Madden says next year the Longhorns have a lot of good returning startersLR(Y Y1muﶜ!ιt%e$V7i |O†sDXMWsHGcί[~=edqK N0ĎETĂNqs)vda~#|p wԱ=lQ@*z5ɀsUK?Yb\n?N+W#QM.e(뿊$i>rB kڞޟiӧy?6B\/]SBxz_,l's??vAWM3WGѯ/|) ~~g3aRcrE͑4Ó IGQְq?flc+뻾mWwftKRUݛ<_[RTbu9\c­Z^Hi̥܁9>S9̒0Afō&+-l,ro( X nTf[B Y#l! 6Pe?, +,`IP= [Zԫfc?:?+T1$/JɗMԛp>ne-KX3ݾV;hn\ď mobIЃB{?h QCR+*1,#/Z=U/3QsY%)mQ,kI R)>o*-ėn^L:\a^7[,([ʵ^h op}ȱF/bm4⑸A*?a*&;OB%.SEeI87h#=WNgλ=j]VVm9aY`i:95F5ukgO 1ny`HؒfI3Kj${|]ƶW>WU 6짐1L݆ޡ@,vkڰ>XX SBHշeG[U {aoR7R!M14^fʫ-lE, \֬ȃA{ʿgg5oV>*\okQ˳Ƙ2z~m8ah[mڒWlC(MRM^l̒1c˒,2e~Hnk3`p\$Eb DloplW8}7룍\ Vk؊ cz5`=z4C `{/\1ݔ;+Ij ګ5v{RN k*5M]/wa>k`7Vmܑ|(+ôW V;E}[MFmRK 31ʋsQ\FfxVHNVk[!?kh o[h#Ǻ͐q.ņ#Ԣ0WGccW\G-ZhZ-l/|k鰠Nl,mb1]mmmݕaٳ}n߶j%1(G2YFђȠȩV2rS1K!1ĶbnMW< CmL'l1#E 5 8X~]ۭVݳ1ھϦ6ے.m1وbp+fݣV8V EqcIYX[wQK!?,lỲZx96l#eKQHs[1؁r7ʹj@qoQ^G͕U>+}wm(쿶ki; v`[--@kޮv@5졅FXdDDbNhk ` 7<]J WDq9XfWS=i#i{4ҞLgƵ4P2~7PcgxVH$ѷ.4e'G1լH(1˝kGgV{}UU7}4w_{z=ow\U1۶Ԛh4".&\ǴoME#Dn ]wV7M~F eI:/Pr:X5_'̴WAȜ>VFv 'ҵBn`K c|=G꬧xOPhN(ICga'UͅpN^Vc~%EwMM63,TakyQ~*a&Ai77jq4SuH>W Z^a ;KJ,1|ʏ/-~^-8t}SRJ"{"eGGM-[/1w7:lUXX[տGWs}\+`1i@!Ո$[遲q|>ުs{ Y %lv{I>QPs|Qtflui ld>/5H&R,*M_u wwm#q E\o`=X(GLxW8@˿5eg+ MS'U]>Dz%9Zl2C,N8^^|4gzmQa$?b%5c2[ w3/˯'jIwڼn#uH/N7tY.o5)&OY !"R8"`(0̺6iWE/_l1cf,3?D>T>ֽ>&y`Ɖ"uΛo exIU{i1c5SEzL]K&x 8 Kn,f6I=hSrZ׬dҔn3O:izS |ڸ: ixΤhz1+ Are)HU, [.ۉ,\Ͽ鄯ƴ0&i#;ؖ
