Please say a prayer for Arden Bucher and stop by and leave a message of support for her family. This little lady is so tough! www.caringbridge.org/visit/ardenquinn

Also, please say a prayer for one of our favorite people, Carrie Maniscalco, as she undergoes another operation tomorrow (actually later today). I’m always so inspired by this young lady. http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/carriemaniscalco

I had the best time Tues. night! We’re trying to pack a lot in before Ali goes to UD, so I took her to a Phillies game. By the 4th inning, the Phillies were down 7-0 to their NL East rivals, the NY Mets. I said to Ali, ‘why don’t we leave in the 7th inning?’. Ali said she really wanted to stay until the end. OK, what’s a couple more innings, I thought. Well, as you may know, the game went 13 innings!!! :) But, at least the Phils won! :) It was so much fun just hanging out with Ali. I’m so blessed.

As many of you head back to school (or have kids heading back to school), I hope you’ll make this the best school year ever. I know it kind of stinks when summer is over and homework returns. But, please take a deep breath and try to keep it in perspective. Make it fun. (I know you think I’m crazy.) For all intents and purposes, you’ve got to be there. You might as well make it enjoyable. It’s up to you! You don’t always control what happens to you (don’t I know it!), but you absolutely control how you deal with it. Be a leader. Stick up for ‘the little guy’.

Live Like Andrew - did you make a difference in at least one person’s life today?

May God bless you all; especially my friend, Madelyn, who is grieving the loss of her mother.
