    Why I’ll Never Be the Same

    Author: Mary Beth | Posted in: Living Radically, Spiritual

    My last several posts have sparked some good conversations with friends. I’m so thankful for that; I’m thankful for the friends that have called me and said, “Let’s have coffee;” I’m thankful for the ones who have said, “We’ve felt that struggle too;” and I’m even thankful for the ones who have said, “What on earth is going on with you?” Through some of these conversations, I’ve come to realize that I might need to back up a bit. One very close friend pointed out that the people that have known me the longest, not necessarily the best but the longest, are a little confused. I’m not very vocal in large groups, so unless we have a close, personal relationship, you may not have heard me talk about the things that have been on my heart, and thus the confusion. So here is my attempt to chronicle what God has done in my heart and why I’ll never be the same.

    I lay all the blame at the feet of three beautiful women, three women who have each, one at a time, turned my world upside down.

    Fifth in State!

    Billy the WrestlerThis weekend we all went to see Billy wrestle in the State Tournament. This was only his first year in wrestling, but he did amazingly well! I was blown away by all of the huge guys he was wrestling and beating!

    Since his school can only have one wrestler per weight class, Billy had to move up to the 171 LB. weight class, but he weighs about ten pounds less than that. So, he was essentially wrestling guys that were heavier and stronger than him, but he still beat them. AMAZING!

    Billy’s last match was excellent. He pinned his opponent in the second round with only one second left on the clock. We were all yelling and going crazy, and Caleb even got in on the action. It was a lot of fun.

    Billy, we are all very proud of you. Way to go!

    Billy the Monster

    Here is a video clip of Billy at his wrestling match last weekend. He made the sports segment of the news! To be honest, wrestling isn’t too big in the south, so I don’t know much about it, but this clip is amazing to me! I can’t believe that that blue and green monster with the rippling muscles is my baby brother! The man yelling for him is my dad.

    Watch Billy take this guy out!
