Invisible muscles




Abram is scrawny. He's tall and thin. Sure, he's bulked up to the 120-pound weight bracket this year for wresltling, but he's still really skinny. And he is also a very good wrestler. Nobody can pin him. Sometimes he loses by points, usually only when he's getting choked, but usually he wins. He is one tough kid. The kids who are his opponents usually have arms 3 times the circumference of Abram's arms. But somehow Abram comes out ahead. He never gives up--that's his secret.


After Abram pinned a really, really, really big and strong kid on Tuesday, Abram's coach said to the team, "Look at Abram using his invisible muscles!" Abram has a big heart, and somehow that compensates for lack of muscle fibers.


Plus, he's super cute. And he loves his mom.
