Well it was a nail-biter to the sweet, sweet end!! Garrett's tball team the Tornadoes played one of our last regular season games tonight against an undeafeated team which I suppose you could say is our rival. We had only previously lost one game so now since we won we are tied for 1st in the league. Being part of a winning team is a new experience for us. In the 2 seasons that Logan played he had fun but his teams were never that good. They mostly fought over the ball and just played in the dirt, like most tball players do!! However Garrett's team has had an awesome and dedicated coach who has really worked to team them the fundamentals and it has payed off. They are actually getting 3 outs before the run rule kicks in for the other team. Tonight was no exception of drama as fans (aka parents) got a little too excited and involved in the play calling. Our poor teenage ump didn't know what to do as he was yelled at, rather rudely at times I might add, as he really tried to be fair. There were missed calls for both teams but I think it was mostly a wash. We were proud of how our boys played and the best part is that they don't even really know if they win or really care. We have a few more regular season games and some makeup games so our season is far from over but I am personally about ready. Tonight was great with the cooler weather but those 6:15 games are getting a little warm.
Otherwise we've been busy with stuff going on around here. Two weeks ago my mom had surgery and I was busy taking care of her. She is well on the way to recovery and last week brought children's camp at church which Mark sponsored and Logan was priviledged to get to attend even though he isn't yet old enough. However, Logan, mature beyond his years fit in well and had a great time. I don't think I've ever seen the boy more exhausted though. They exciting news on Logan's front is that he prayed last Wed night to ask Jesus into his heart. What a joy to see the fruits of our labor to bring our children up in the Lord by seeing them come to a personal relationship with Him. Camp went well and Mark too was very tired but don't let him tell you he didn't have fun. Mark and I both reverted to our camp counselor history but it is just a little different than it was 13 yrs ago when we were 13 yrs younger. We still think of ourselves that way but reality is we're a little different, lots for the better though!
Addi Grace is along for the ride and staying out of danger for now. She has proven to be quite the water baby and is always bringing me her swimsuit and asking to go to the pool. She has turned into quite the talker as well and is never short on words. I am a little sad that now just about everyone can understand her and I am not the only one who can decode her private language.
I am having a little drama of my own with some recent onset of numbness and tingling in my left arm and hand. The docs didn't seem too concerned at first but as it hasn't resolved with basic treatment of antiinflammatories and steriods, I am scheduled for an MRI of my neck tomorrow. I certainly consider myself too young for this kind of thing so please keep me in your prayers. I am trying to stay calm and not let my nursing mind dream up problems that don't exist, ie brain tumors, etc. I'll keep you updated.
I am going to try and post some pics as my new camera is up and running. They will likely be recent hodgepodge so enjoy!! Another update to come sooner than the last!
