I just read my post from several days ago and thought I sounded a little down on the draft with my last statement. Actually we had a ton of fun with our draft experiences. The scouts were all very helpful and professional...and there's nothing like getting those questionnaires in the mail. I organized and filed everything for both guys so they would be able to remember the excitment we all felt during those months leading up to the draft.
I think the hardest part for me, like many of you, was trying to get a handle on what to expect. Like any mom, I had a hard time with the thought of my sons being hurt, so I tried to downplay the whole event and our expectations just to provide some balance in our perspective.
That didn't mean we all weren't nervous wrecks that morning, but we put on our best game faces for each other and remained determined to see the good in whatever happened ...and we weren't disappointed.
God took care of everything!
