Sadly, Evan's "handicap" run is coming to end today .
We have a boy in our ward who was born with cerebral palsy and is also nearly blind. He's no shrinking violet though as he makes his way in the world. He is a gigantic "U" fan (and lets everyone know it), plays church basketball with the YM and manages all the major sports teams at the high school. Evan has been driving McKay to school for the last year and a half. The perk for this has been the handicap sticker. If he drives McKay, Mac's mom lets Evan use the handicap sticker. They get an awesome parking place every day and occasionally, although politically incorrect, we have used the handicap sticker selfishly when Mac isn't with us. I'm told that McKay's family does this too.
Unfortunately for Evan and Jake, McKay's sister, Leah, is turning 16 this week and either wants to drive Mac to school or just wants to use the sticker to get a great parking place. Evan predicts that this arrangement will not last though because, I'm told, Leah isn't exactly prompt.

Good parking is hard to come by, I don't blame him a bit for using it when I see that cold snow on the ground. It sounds like you are all losing the privilege! I guess you guys are back to being normal folk who have to walk a bit more.
