Meet My Mom

Hey everyone and good morning! I know that I've bragged about my dad here but today it's all about my mom. My parents are both in their late 60s. But you really wouldn't know it by observing their daily life.

They have a nursing home ministry which they have been doing for close to 20 years now.

Dad is an artist - an award winning one at that.

Mom has a part time job and - the thing that I'm probably most proud of - she plays on two Senior League softball teams!

She plays on a local team that has games on Wednesday nights in St Petersburg. Often times they will have a double header. Then she also plays on a traveling tournament team - The Silver Belles. No one on this team is under the age of 65.

Her last tournament they won 1st place after winning all 7 of their games over a period of 4 days.

I'm traveling to Florida next month and I'm going to be able to see her play. I'm looking forward to it! I'll get as many pictures as I can and write all about the action packed event!

My mom and dad never miss the chance to tell me how proud they are of me. Mom tells me on a regular basis. But I think this time I'm just a little bit more proud of her!!
