Spring has sprung . . .

. . . and it is really nice!!

We spent much of the day at the ball fields and, though a little chilly, it was a really beautiful day.

Alex and I started the day off by running (Alex) / walking (me) a 5K run/walk at his school. It was a nice little run/walk through the neighborhood. We really should do those more often. They're kind of fun! And it's fun to type "run/walk" lots of times in a short paragraph!!

As far as ballgames went, Alex won, Parker lost but hit a home run, and Luke won!! Of course, we're all winners in every game because it doesn't really matter if we win - we just play to have fun!! It's not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game!! Winning isn't everything!! Winners never cheat and cheaters never win!!

OK - that's all the winner cliches I can think of!!

Onto more serious things -

Most of my 3 readers know my good friend Shellee and her journey this past week-10 days with her sweet dad. To think that Shellee, who is young like me, has gone from having a pretty healthy dad to realizing only God has the power to heal him in that short a period of time is crazy. Please, please, please pray for Shellee and her dad, and their whole family. They need wisdom, peace, and a huge helping of God's presence to get through these days. You can never have too much prayer, so pray without ceasing for them - please!!
