Just a few more pictures (sorry)

Whitney and Coach Dave...discussing the game.
I love this picture

Rach went a little crazy after the game

Whoo hoo Whitney

Whit and Marie Prins...remembering the heartbreak of last year's regionals

...and shedding a few tears together.
Whit's biggest fan....the whole team agrees, it wouldn't be
the same without "Uncle Gar" there to yell "Hittin Time"

Almost an over the fence homer...hit the top of the fence on this one

Softball Friends are so special...Whit's Travel Team Friends.

(Neeners is Whit...and you'll have to ask her about RBM-Red Band Mafia)

Memorial Day Brunch

More brunch pictures.....

May 21 was the day!!

Happy Belated Birthday on the Lubbers blog, Scott! It was May 21...and you are a young 35!

in memorial.

two poems dedicated on this Memorial Day to my sister and family.

to be named

one child never to be known

one child hoping to be known

where did you go little one

where is that cuddling little child we so desired

where is that suckling of your mother's breasts

we will not know your joy

but we celebrate you

we love you

we will remember you

yet we know not your name

mommy - give me a name.

o this post

where God?

pain

anguish

gut wrenching sobbing

a little life has ended much too soon

three children and father and mother cry out

where is the justice of an anticipated child dying 

where is this god who calls himself God in this mess

a request for prayer goes out not knowing if it will be honored

overwhelming responses from around the continent

request for prayer turns into corporate tears

a kingdom not yet fully realized

a God of response responds

come quickly Lord Jesus

overwhelming

still pain

Cool and 40!!

Hey, Kathy! Party on!! You look great at 40!! (Do you remember where this was taken??)
