Three glorious Saturdays. No idea how much pride and joy is flowing through my veins right now. My eyes went teary from the moment I saw our coach jump around like the kid she is inside. It was amazing just to see our team come together and be amazing like that. Our boys blasted that competition. I'm still a little speechless.
My thoughts on a road trip with these girls were really confirmed today. I believe that if we were to be on the road together, for over fifty miles, most definitely we would get either lost, robbed, or killed. But that's said in a lighthearted tone.
But we're going to state. And that's the best kind of road trip there is.
For now.
But these past few Saturdays spent with some of my favorite people have been spectacular. So many stories, so many memories made with these kids. And I'm so thankful to be a part of it.
I have to say that if we all do go to Austin together, things will never be the same. We are, I believe, by far the tightest knit program in all of Liberty's athletics teams. And a road trip for us, especially with the seniors we have, would probably just be the pinnacle of the season.
If I am ever bold enough as to write my own life story into a small book of interesting stories, then I'm sure I will have chapters to tell. A lot of it will be little frivolous twists and tales that no one would ever know. But some would be very meaningful.
Maybe they would be a poem or something. I don't know. The prose is still undecided.
Wait. Whoa. So am I now planning to write an autobiography?
Certainly not. Oh no. I make myself laugh.
The things I have discovered, been told, told others. I've had my thoughts in a whirlwind, grasping so many concepts in one sitting. But guess what? I absolutely love doing that. Finding out things about others. And telling people about myself. Growing and changing. Chauffeuring next year's seniors down the road to graduation, while we ourselves are becoming tomorrow's departed. It's amazing. And a little frightening.
Apart from that, my weekend has been far from bland. And with the new regional champions, we also have our district triumphants. Lil' sis, you've done amazing. District champions. I can only imagine what you guys will do as freshmen.
And as one last word, I have to say, that life would never be the same without people in a car.
Just sayin'.
