HOME SWEET HOME

Berlynn packed her stuff and came home from school Wednesday. It's been a long 2 months of alot of praying. We asked Berlynn softball coach to resign from his position of Head Softball Coach. If he did not we told him we had no other alternative than to go to the school. Luckly he went to the Athletic Director and he was suspended for 2 weeks. After interviewing Berlynn and a few other girls he was fired by the end of the day. Berlynn wanted to leave school and she asked to be released from playing softball because of all the hard feelings the other teammates had for Berlynn. Which would make it difficult for her to further her softball career. We know that we did the right thing and so does the coach. It's too bad that you think you are sending your children off to college where it should be a safe environment and things like this have to happen. I was alittle apprehensive to posting this but I felt that this is life and it did happen and it needs to be addressed. There has been a few girls that have text Berlynn and said that she did the right thing and that she has their support. Which she greatly appreciates. It's been terribly hard on her and a 19 year old shouldn't have to go through something like this but things happen for a reason and she is and always will be a strong individual and we LOVE her.

Alright, GIRL, you are so busted! Thank heavens Erin did a free giveaway to get all the crazy blog stalkers out of the woodwork :) HOW fun to check into since you live SO far away and we only rarely bump into each other at Target! I'm totally in the dark about the Berlynn drama, but it sounds pretty awful, so I'm glad she's home where she's loved and protected and all that good stuff. Keep posting . . . I'll need some gym success stories after baby #5 gets here in the spring. Ick!
