JONATHAN

Jonathan is my pride and joy. He is 20 years old, 6'3", and 275 lbs. Yes, I created a monster :-) He has been living with me for the last 5 years and what a glorious 5 years it's been for him and for me.
His biggest accomplishment in high school was being named the . He was also on the varsity football team.
Speaking of high school, here is another picture of him with his Grandma Fran on his graduation day.
His present goal in life is to become a Physical Therapy Assisant (PTA). He's doing great so far... still maintaining a 4.0 gpa after a year and a half of school.
He doesn't have time for much else, but when he needs to vent some frustration, he goes back to his high school to help coach the younger guys. He says there's nothing better than a good wrestling match.
He had a major accident last year that could have killed him if he hadn't been wearing his seatbelt. Just take a look at his crashed truck. Thank you God for watching over him.
1999 Update: He graduated from PTA school and is now enrolled in the local university where he plans to get his bachelor's degree in Sports Medicine. He was ready to go out and get a job as a PTA; however, him and I both decided that he should take advantage of his living here and keep going with his schooling while he had free room and board :-) Also, here are some present day pics of him too... This picture is of his new GQ look he created
And here he is relaxing on our screened in backporch
2000 Update: He's into kickboxing now and even had a No Holds Barred match recently (June) where he won the Superheavyweight title for the East Coast. Check out the fight pictures! It's under the link called "Weezy".
2001 Update: My son is going to fight Dan "The Beast" Severn as the Main Event in the upcoming WEF competition. Check out this web site for more information... http://www.worldextremefighting.cc
2002-2005 Update: I have an AMAZING son! Yeah, he beat "The Beast" and 5 other fights since then. He got his bachelor's degree and then went on and got his MASTER's degree in Sports Medicine. And now he has the perfect job...well almost perfect in his eyes, but to me it is perfect because it has major benefits to include a 2 bedroom house for $100 a month rent, free food, 401K where they match the amount contributed, medical, dental, and even tuition for his future sons. It's a private boys high school in Chattanooga so that's why I say "sons" :-) His girlfriend, Emily, is equally AMAZING :-) She's in the midst of becoming a chiropratic doctor! Good thing too because she can help relieve the discomforts from Jonathan's fights :-) I'll add a picture of them soon.
