so yeah, I took on a new project... Lol...

This is Kobe. He's 11 years old.

I met Kobe at the "Faces of Courage" event I do every year (I'm on my 5th year there)... basically it's a kids camp for poor kids with cancer, blood disorders, asthma, and other ailments... Kobe is one of the kids who just has Asthma, which is on the lighter end of the scale compared to a lot of the other kids there who have cancer.

But basically he's a kid who's dad bailed on him when he was little, his mom is very poor, and he's kind of a troubled kid. So I agreed to kinda take him under my wing and teach him how to make stuff, but he has to cut the bullshit at school so he doesn't get expelled, and not talk back to his mom...

so yeah, he's the "new guy"... lol... I hope I can help him...
