Tonight the girl was scheduled to catch in her first high school game. This is huge! After tearing the ligament in her thumb in August this was her first time behind the plate for the entire game.
Good friends will wish you luck, really great friends will come out to watch you play and super amazing friends with drive two and half hours, sit in freezing cold weather and cheer you on! Abigail is pretty lucky, she has all of those types of friends.
The Gungan's drove down from Oklahoma and Gracie and her family came out and although I didn't remember to get pics of her fan squad until the end of the game the girl was over the moon to look up and see and hear half the bleachers cheering for her!!
I'd like to report that she had a stellar game, but well, it was her first type back behind the plate. There is room for improvement and all the skills will come back. The greatest thing is the awesome support of friends and extended family. In a world full of 'mean girls,' 'gossip girls,' and bullies we have been blessed with a support system beyond my wildest dreams.
One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin,
but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
Proverbs 18:24
