It doesn’t always happen this way, which is what made Mother’s Day this year so memorable.
It was cold.
Cold for May.
Very cold for my wife.
That’s how we’ve found the weather here in Colorado after nearly 3 years. Unpredictable at times, windy, and even some sun.
Yet, she endured the wind, the cold, and a bit of rain for two days to cheer on her teenage son, and rejoice. In the end the team got their first tournament victory, congratulations Broomfield Braves!
It’s worth mentioning that his biggest fan and younger brother was right there cheering the team on as well!
We didn’t spend the entire day at the baseball park, we went out to one of our favorite restaurants to honor Mom and celebrate, followed by some downtime at home, watching one of our favorite shows.

40. An interesting number. According to Wikipedia: Forty is an octagonal number, and as the sum of the first four pentagonal numbers, it is a pentagonal pyramidal number. Adding up some subsets of its divisors (e.g., 1, 4, 5, 10 and 20) gives 40, hence 40 is a semiperfect number. Some say turning 40 is a milestone in ones life….

“Ok, I have an idea!” I continued, “If we want to clean up our unwholesome speech, cussing, we need to figure out a meaningful consequence.” Daryl was always open to trying something new, “In order to quit swearing, what if it costs us $.25 each time we drop a verbal bomb? The proceeds we gather…
