Our Most Vertically Challenged Daughter


At Andrew’s Regional Church basketball game this week we met 7 ft. 5 inch Will Foster. He was a “ringer” for the Bonney Lake Men’s Ward team. In my day, I recruited some good ringers for our church ball team but nothing like him.

When he sat on the stage his legs touched the floor of the gym. He stretched in warm ups against the backboard. He ducked to get through any door in the church. He was also a good basketball player. He was drilling three point shots in warm-ups (It reminded me a bit of Manute Bol). Will played at Gonzaga a few years ago.

I told Rebekah that we should get a picture with her and Will. He was very nice about posing with our most vertically challenged daughter. She immediately posted it as her profile photo on Facebook. Does she look 2 feet 4 inches smaller than him?

Wow Bedda. Amazing. It looks like you two are different kinds of animals.
