The tide didn’t roll in our favor, and the final score wasn’t what we had hoped for — but these days, a football game’s outcome is the very last thing on our minds.
What truly matters now are the moments we’re given and the people we get to share them with. And by that measure, this day was a blessing beyond words.
In the stands, there was laughter and connection that no scoreboard could measure. Will spent the game beside one of his best friends, soaking in every moment of normalcy and joy. Charlie was right there with her best friend too, sharing smiles that reminded us how powerful simple happiness can be. And Jason and I? We were surrounded by ours — the friends who show up, stand close, and walk beside us through every season.
Life has a way of shifting your perspective. Wins and losses fade quickly, but days like this stay with you. When health, faith, and family take center stage, everything else becomes background noise.
Today wasn’t about touchdowns or final stats. It was about gratitude. It was about presence. It was about being together in a moment that felt like a gift.
Thank You, God, for an amazing day — for friendship, for love, and for reminding us what truly matters most.
