This was a homework assignment Will was super excited about. Will has always been passionate about space and we are avid followers of nearly every mission as we could see the shuttle path and rockets burn from our front window in Florida. As soon as this was mentioned- Will started working on Mrs. Brooks to make sure he would get a space hero. I could not imagine the disappointment of ending up with Davy Crockett or Albert Einstein- sorry guys- but not his preference. His persistence paid off as Mrs. Brooks finally gave in and told Will that he could be Neil Armstrong! Mom was relieved as the outfit was already in the dress up bin! A friend in his class was John Glenn and as luck would have it- he could fit into our other space suit (we also have 2 flight suits that would have sufficed if needed!).
Neil and John
