back yard kickball

At church tonight, a bunch of kids wanted to go out side for a little while to play. I told them that they could, I would stay out there with them until their parents were done with bible study. They wanted to play kickball, I said fine... I was thinking that I could ref or jus****ch. Some how, I really dont know how, but I was in the game, kicking the ball and running to the bases like a 9 year old! I had a blast! It felt so good to run and laugh, and the kids were so great to me, cheering me on and encouraging me to play my best. I dont remember the last time that I played backyard sports. It really feels great to be able to run and have fun. I feel like a new person. WOW! God bless, Cathy

Way to go, Cathy! Sounds like you had fun!! JoAnn

Thanks! It was fun and I cant wait until I can do it again. Cathy

Congrats Cathy. Its those moments that just make you so happy!!!!!! I need some lately. Glad you are doing well. You coming to Charlottesville in June? Hope so Shannon

KICKBALL???? I love love love Kickball!!!!! Or at least I think I still do? That used to be one of my favorite games during recess - it was a toss up between that and Tetherball (sp)... prolly messed the spelling of that up completely, the ball attached to the pole on a rope and you smack it around with your hand, trying to get it to wrap tight. Iz the Reigning Tether Ball Queen of our 2nd grade class at Saint Anns Elementary! Impressive, huh? Not! Anyway - thanks for sharing your happiness and wonderful moment, it brought back some wonderful memories for me too.

Awww, Cathy, isn't it wonderful to feel like a kid again? Your wow moments are just beginning.... Hugs, Betsy

Isn't that great! I am sure you felt wonderful! I am looking forward to running again. I am such a lively person on the inside...I always want to go and do but my body keeps me down. Congrats to you! Hugs! Shele
