Written by Timothy Ward


Continued from page 1

My oldest nephew, Frankie, is now 8. I had to ask him how old he was when I started writing this article, because I always forget.

"Frankie, how old are you now"? I asked. "Seven or eight"?

"Eight." he replied, with an expression of total disgust on his face. "I can't believe you thought I was seven"

I have to get my body and mind in shape. I run. I lift weights. I practice my Thunder Power Slams, Killer Elbow combos and tapping out. And I spend a lot of time on my sprints.

One thing I do know is that no matter what age they are and no matter what phases in life they are going through I will always love them. They are My nephews, My family.
