Driving my kid to baseball practice earlier

And this thing lands on our truck while stopped at light. Anyone have any clue what is it? It's totally wild and fake looking.

Lol
It stayed on the wiper till we were on our way back home. I had my son reach out and brush it off just in case it was a weird grass or plant eating menace. Didn't want that at my house haha

Is that a moth?? I'm leaning toward a funky moth.

It's obviously some kind of locust signifying another 7 years of no Cowboy Super Bowls..

One thing I would strongly recommend is getting him some of those wrist strengthening hand held exercise devices. I don't even know what ya call it, but I've always liked that thing with the two prongs that you squeeze together. Those sponge squeeze things are good also, but I like the other better, because you can keep track of the reps your're doing for improvement.

I literally wore out at least a dozen of the prong squeezers over the years to the point where they broke, the metal attaching them snapped.

Strong wrists are very important for other sports as well.

Tell him not to try to over do it in the beginning. Start slow with a few reps a few times a day and build on it. No need to strain with it, it's actually better to do a little less than a little more. His wrists will get stronger and he will have an edge over the competition.

Again very important, don't over do it especially the first few months - just ease into it. If his wrists get a little sore from doing it, take a few days off from doing it, then ease back into it.

It's a great exercise because you can do it while watching TV or videos. I used to do it a lot while studying.

Different shapes and tensions. If you decide to do it...get him one in the beginning with very low tension...as low as possible.

Very brave of you to have your son "reach out and brush it off".
