What an amazing event! A big Thank you to Jeff, everyone who organized or helped with the event, and those who participated. It was great to get out on the water with such great people and introduce my youngest son to some of those I've enjoyed this wonderful sport with. Sunday at NP was his first time float tube fishing and he caught his first ever spottie. To see the excitement and enjoyment on his face throughout the day really brought light to what the event was all about. Bringing excitement and joy to children.
I told my son about the event and why it was special on our way to Lake Perris. When he found out about the raffle, I told him if we won the tube it would be his. I just found out today from one of my good fishing buddies that we had won the grand prize and as I shared that information with my son it was amazing to see his face light up and hear him get excited about us building a rod rack together for it and going out fishing.
I feel truly blessed in life and nothing brings me more happiness than me teaching my children how wonderful it is to do good things for others. It's an added bonus when I also get to share with them the activities that I love and enjoy.
I hope everyone is Well and Joyful this holiday season.
