Max Ludwig

I was given a home work assignment by one of Max's teachers to describe him in a million words or less. Try not to get all misty eyed on me, Max. Here it is:

Max Ludwig is my son and I'm proud to say so. He's also many other things. He's a runner (a fast one), a football player (a natural one), a basketball player, a "foody", a reader, a builder, an artist and babysitter. He's considerate of others except when he's excited, angry, tired or hungry (just like the rest of us). He likes animals especially dogs despite being attacked by one when he was 2. He's fearless. He's kind to small children and loves babies. He sometimes thinks his parents are lame, because sometimes they are and other times he's angry, tired or hungry. He hates failure and gets frustrated. He can be a perfectionist, and later realizes that's ridiculous. He laughs at himself. He's got a great laugh. He's silly. He makes a difference. He's got lots of friends, but a few who are special to him. He's loved very much by his parents, who wish he would go sailing with them more often.
