You know one of those feel good days that restores your faith in humanity? Well, we had one of those days today. We went to Cheeverstown to play sports with the children that are there. They all have disabilities and use wheelchairs. The boys should be very proud of themselves because they were compassionate, gentle, caring and so patient with their new friends 👼
JJ was the coach and he started off by asking us were we nervous. A few of us admitted we were but he put us at ease and promised we wouldn't feel nervous by the end. And he was so right. Within minutes, any apprehension we had was gone and the boys were whizzing by with the wheelchairs to the delight of the children in them!
A little boy called Seán had come to watch the fun and he ended up stealing the hearts of some of our boys! Seán was a great little character and full of personality!! Just look at the photos below to see him!
JJ couldn't thank the boys enough and said that without them, the children wouldn't have had any sport today. He reminded the boys that we are all different and the children in the wheelchairs deserve to have fun like them.
