What
a Saturday. Pretty full day. Caleb had a basketball double header. During one of the games his other set of
grandparents showed up from Crosby, followed within a few minutes by his Mom
and Dad. AnnaGrace’s face when she saw
her Mommy was priceless. Sheer joy. Mommy’s home.
After
the second game we all went over to Jason’s Deli for lunch. It’s one of their favorite hang out
spots. Food was pretty good. Typical deli sandwich, but I had some Irish
Potato Soup that was amazing. Know what
I’ll order next time for sure. After
enjoying an ice cream cone and/or a root beer float (made from the free ice
cream machine and the free refills root beer dispenser – told you it was worth
the trip), we headed back to the gym for Zak’s basketball game. It was a close, hard-fought affair, with the
lead exchanging hands numerous times.
Zak’s team ended up losing, but only after their two ball handlers had
four fouls apiece and were physically exhausted. Nice games, Zak and Caleb.
The
evening hours proved a bit more relaxing.
After a fine supper of spaghetti, Josh figured out how to us the new
YouTube TV. They don’t have cable, but
this new invention allowed us to watch some of the Olympics and a lot of
college basketball. Great way to spend
an evening, wouldn’t you say? Oh, we did
do a little switching around of rooms for the night with the addition of
Christi’s mom and dad. Hey, we gotta get
ready for living on the road for the next week, right? Well, not on the road, literally. That would be camping. That’s not happening …
Psalms
34:1 says, “I will extol the Lord at all
times; his praise will always be on my lips.”
Father,
thank you for extended families and grandchildren rallying points. Oh, and for Mommy getting home. Nothing quite as special as that. Amen.
