Theresa's Grandson, John Arthur

Yes, it's Annie posting again! Hey, Mom... thought you might like this sweet picture of your grandson, John (and you) who just finished up his Junior Year with the big game yesterday. It was Michigan State vs. University of Michigan. Unfortunately MSU lost but they gave the #1 Rated team in the country a run for their money. I think the final score of the game was 12-6. Not sure. Your grandson hustled as hard as he could and made several good plays. As his mom, I felt like a celebrity. The stands were packed because they had a day full of lacrosse games starting with young kids all the way up to the grand finale college game. People were asking me if I had a son who played? Where we are from? What year he is? How tall he is? They said he was fast! They even started asking me rules? Uh oh! I was a little embarrassed but loved it! You would have been proud! I'm so glad you were able to see him play while you were here in Michigan!

Love you!
Annie xoxo

HE CALLS ME FRIEND

Today has been quite a day! WE BURIED MY BEST FRIENDS THIRD SON..NO ONE CAN IMAGINE WHAT THIS MOM AND DAD ARE GOING THROUGH...WE'VE BEEN FRIENDS FOR OVER 50 YEARS AND HAVE BEEN THROUGH GREAT TIMES AND BAD TIMES TOGETHER. IT BREAKS MY HEART. WORDS CANNOT TELL THE PAIN THIS FAMILY HAS BEEN THROUGH. I KNOW THAT GOD IS THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN HELP THEM. WILL YOU ALL PLEASE INCLUDE THEM IN YOUR PRAYERS AND ASK YOUR FRIENDS TO DO THE SAME? ONLY GOD CAN HEAL OR MAKE SENSE OUT OF WHAT HAS HAPPENED. WE KNOW IF GOD TAKES CARE OF THE BIRDS HE WILL CERTAINLY TAKE CARE OF US. WE KNOW THERE ARE NO COINCIDENCES BUT IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE WHAT SOME HAVE TO EXPERIENCE. I KNOW YOUR PRAYERS CAN ONLY HELP THEM. THANKS IN ADVANCE. IT'S HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHEN YOU ARE GOING THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THIS THAT GOD REALLY CALLS YOU FRIEND.
