Closing ceremonies were wonderful last night. Lots of celebrating, speaking, applause and singing (no, not me). The band put on a great show at the University of Pittsburgh Arena.
We did not repeat as National Cup Champs, Team Arizona won. Team NC did just awesome. We had 5 children competing, ranging in ages from 7 to 11 yrs old. Seeing the kids is a highlight.
One of the highlights for me is saying "thank you" to the donor families I meet everywhere I go. It is a privilege to honor them, and hear them share about their loved ones who died. It is humbling. We met a mother from NY who lost her son a few years ago. He was a student at NC State, loved flag football & smoothies. My wife, Caroline, has all these things in common with him. Wow. She cried and we hugged and took pics together.
God is good. Write more later.
