Baseball Season

Today baseball starts for Christopher. We were beginning to think the season would never start - they rescheduled the evaluations 3 times and finally had to do the draft without them. We know a couple of kids on the team and we like them so we're off to a good start. Actually, we're off to a great start. The sun is beaming down - there really is sunshine. I was beginning to wonder.

Don't tell anyone, but I look forward to these rites of spring. The cycling race season starting. Baseball starting. Christopher even said that the field seemed so familiar. I wonder why - he's spent hours and hours here watching James and playing himself.

The good news for you guys is that sports starting back means that I will actually have pictures to post and may even get around to posting more.

Hope you all enjoy this beautiful day.

Taking the Good with the Bad


Some of you know that I traveled to Germany this week - for all of two days. Frankfurt, to be precise, is a very long way from Atlanta. When you go from Atlanta, you fly overnight, ie, you leave at 4:30 in the afternoon and arrive at 7:20 am (or 1:20am Atlanta time) and you just go to work. You can see that timing could make for a very long trip.

I didn't get many pictures - 2 to be precise. There just wasn't a lot to take pictures of. Maybe I'll get around to downloading them and sharing them and explain more about why I didn't think there was a lot to photograph. I was really ready to get home by Thursday afternoon and my 2ish arrival time. As we landed, I got more ready...I could tell my tummy was starting to not cooperate. Long story short, let's just say I brought home a stomach virus and now I really have something I can share when asked about my most embarrassing moment. Finally, after 48 hours I'm feeling much better.

Now for the good. I had become incredibly frustrated because I had deleted a digital scrapbook page that I had spent a fair amount of time on. I couldn't believe that I didn't save it, but I had searched every way possible for days. Today, I found it. It had accidentally saved to an external hard drive I have.




It was a page documenting the Photowalk we took with Aunt Molly. I am soooo happy I found it. Some good with the bad.

Some more good was James's team winning the basketball championship today. He kept rubbing his tummy during the game. Yep, he has some bad to go with his good - he had to rush home because his tummy hurts. What an opportunity to learn to rejoice in all things! (And, how bad a mommy feels when she passes on a stomach virus....gotta go, Christopher is starting to complain now.) Y'all have a good week.
