Last week the Russellville 7th grade girls hosted Clarksville. For the first 5 minutes of the game Sheridan guarded one of her best friends, and the rest of the game she tried to shut down one of old neighborhood girls from scoring on us! Clarksville won the games, but for our family, it was a sweet night. It was the first game all year that someone actually made a beeline to sit by me. Our friends, (who know our big kids, our history and our stories) hugged us, asked us questions about everyone, told us they missed us, and made the game a friendly match up.
I know we're supposed to be here. My kids are blooming in school and being prepared well for the future. Our church is stretching us and encouraging us. We're making new friends, I'm back in BSF, and our house is underway. However, some days are super lonely, and getting a hug from an old friend was good for my soul.
