Cute!  Strong work ethic which is great but one can grow up to be a workaholic too.

Just wondering with all of his hard work, being an honor roll student, on two baseball teams...one is a travel team (my son did little league and it took up a huge amount of time), chores on the farm, 4H club will he have time for the big game?

That is a special child.I am sure his family is proud.I don't know any children who work that hard but maybe farm life ihas different expectations.Thanks for posting that sweet story.

I do not know who is crying more, the young boy or me, what a special young man, I see a very bright future for him!

They should run it for the majority of school kids who don't want to do nothing , but, holler "give me".

@Oznell very cute...I am teary-eyed!  I love the pig snort in the background too!

And the Cubs are giving him a pass to watch batting practice on the field.  Very nice move, Cubbies.  I'm sure he will get to meet a lot of the players.

I was thinking, as I watched the video, that this is a moment that both Dad and Kolt will remember the rest of their lives and will influence Kolt when he becomes a Dad.

 God bless Dad's like his.
