Peyton Ogle was all smiles Monday.

The 10-year-old Signal Mountain bundle of energy embraces every new day, and the second Leap Day of his young life was just another reason to celebrate.

It was cause to celebrate. Who knew what the day could hold? Maybe some range – he loves golf, after all. Maybe finding a spot for that golf trophy he won last weekend. Maybe a chance to spend another afternoon laughing with his dad, Chris, and mom, Steph.

An extra 24 hours is an extra day to do anything, especially when you are still a few years from becoming a teenager and already a cancer survivor.

The Ogle clan just completed five years of an emotional whirlwind.
