ESPN: The Worldwide Leader In Sports
Tonight is the night! Yes, the first game of the NFL season puts my favorite team, the Colts, against the Saints of New Orleans and I can't wait! Aaron is going to watch the game up at church with the other men as a part of the "Men's Ministry." Frankly, I think it is just an excuse to watch football and eat ribs without having to be responsible for the kids, but they will have a good time. I can watch it here at home, by myself, wearing my #18 Jersey!!
I dropped off Susie at her first day of school and she didn't hardly turn around to say goodbye. That girl is so independent. What a chip of the block, eh? I love my Susie. I'm sure she is just having a blast and I'm so thankful. Parker and I went and had a light breakfast with Mrs. Brownstone, Mrs. B and Mrs. Tefer. We did the schedule for Club 56 (that is the 5th and 6th grade bible class at church that we all teach together) for this fall and it was great. Stuff is coming together and I'm feeling like God is so blessing us with all these great kids in our lives. I hope they feel the same way about us!
Today my friends, Shannon (Pollard is her maiden name) and Greg King are having probably one of the hardest days of their life. They have known it was going to happen, but today Shannon delivered her 3rd little one, via c-section, and she died about 30 minutes later. She had a fatal neural tube defect and Shannon carried her, knowing this, until she was about 36 weeks pregnant, I think. Her name is Olivia and I'm sure she was a beautiful little bundle, just like her big sister Bailey and big brother, Beckham. I know they were so thankful for the 30 minutes they had with her. They are just in my every thought today and if ya'll could remember them and the rest of their family today, I would really appreciate it.

I have been thinking about Shannon all week long. My heart hurts for them. She is so lucky to have such good friends like you and Kristy (and all the others in your class).
I had an aunt who lost several babies - at 89 when she was very close to death - those babies were who she was thinking of, finally getting to rock her sweet family.
