Key to Awesomeness:
Thomas is one of those kids who is truly worth getting to know well, says proud mother Cathy Larson.
He is funny, inquisitive, intelligent, loves to laugh and is one of the hardest working kids around, mom adds.
Between sports, scouts, church and school, he has a very busy schedule.
But you can be assured that he is giving you his best effort in everything he undertakes, mom says.
“The key to awesomeness is to set your goals high and then always do your best,” says Thomas. “The harder you try, the more you will achieve!”
