Am I nervous about the match vs France? Yes. Do I doubt the USA? No. So why am I nervous? 1. The last time we played France, we lost. 2. They have an entire country cheering them on. Home advantage, if you will. 3. We have a phenomenal offense. Our back line isn't completely secure. And, despite the fact that I don't love Hope Solo's personal baggage, none of our current keepers match her talent. Less than 15 hours to the whistle blows ... #oosa

Happy Birthday to my Grandma Bailey! She just might be the easiest person to love, especially when you see how easy it is for her to love others without condition. I am truly grateful to have her in my life! I know that the time will come when she will leave us and join her sweetheart. (Oh how I wish I could have a glimpse of that tender reunion.) Until then, I'll continue to love how her face lights up and her eyes sparkle when she giggles. I'll smile when I see her smile and I will continue to treasure how special I feel each time her soft hands hold mine as we sit together and talk. #94

This guy . . . Beckerman loves having his people together; so, when he gets worried about me going down to my place, he stands on the recliner in protest, thwarting any attempt to escape. When he really wants to make a point, he stands on my legs with a persistent conviction. He may be stubborn and lacks any semblance of subtlety, but his unconditional love and fierce soul have been added to my favorite collection- a box of treasures his sister left for me. #beckermanmojibailey

DAYBREAK HIT & RUN: Last night, outside of our home, a man was hit by a car while helping a family member to her car; the car that hit him sped off. This young man is my friend's brother. Her post gives you an update on his condition. I'll share more when she gives another update.

I'm fully aware that #nationalsiblingsday was yesterday; but, in my defense, I was attacked and held hostage last night by a nasty migraine. Anyway, I came across an article with an excerpt that does a fabulous job of summing up my thoughts about my three brothers. "It can be hard growing up the only gal in a family full of boys: Instead of fairy wands, you got lightsabers; you were called a “tomboy” not a “princess.” And while that moniker was leveled at you like a dirty word, you grew to wear it like a badge of honour. For better or worse, your bros shaped (and shoved) you into the woman you are today." -Amber Dowling, The Loop #ilovemybrothers #ilovedmychildhood #familyiseverything

I'm about a month late with this post but I'm just gonna roll with it . . . When we caravanned down to LV last month, Beckerman and Carmel were treated to a vacation. My cousin, @whithutchins, and her family took care of 'Beckarmel'! Whitney is my cousin/dog guru/bff/sounding board, etc. She basically tolerated me and my constant fretting over Mia and still tolerates my Beckerman worries. (She also knows way too much about my personal health. I am a constant TMIer when she and I talk.😂) Anyway, she and her cute tribe loved and played with Beck and Carmel. (Do you see how Beckarmel works?) They were loved by Whitney and Hankleberry Finn (love ya @bbn35) and three of the cutest kids on the planet- Novita, the Rock and AO! Thome, the world's greatest hugger, ignored their constant need to compete- (as seen in the photo of them walking and trying to get ahead of one another- and then note how Thome doesn't care). Thank you to the Hutchins clan for loving and caring forour 4-legged family members while we celebrated Owen's special day!. We love you!
