I don't know about y'all, but...

These mean SO much more to me now than the simple beauty of God's creations...

...now each petal holds important admonitions just for me.

Dear Rachie My Kay...

Thank you for...oh so much...

• waking me up every day on the bus.
• making up songs, playing bouncy house, and sleeping over on the trampoline.
• sharing my vision of a huge fort (instead of a pathetic 8" tall oval trail of leaves), a phone (instead of tree branches), and endless hours of Mario Bros and junk food.
  
• giving me something to celebrate after the worst display of football suckiness I've ever seen.

But most of all, for being my best friend for more than 30 years. You're such a great example of all things wonderful.

You rock.

Love you!

Let's focus on this instead, shall we?

So, you know me. You know I love sports. THAT is not a shock. However...I'm tired of hearing about the crap collegiate athletes pull lately. I know, I know. They're just the ones on the news (and yes, I mean ESPNews), but whatev.

"Lllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" (angels singing)...enter awesome people.

Can we...for a moment...focus on stories/peeps like the following? Cause, they rock. Do it. Click on it. You know you want to...

Meet The Griffon Safeties and Blake McJunkin.
