I'm going to the pink meet tonight with Jordan and his family. For those of you who don't know, The University of Alabama gymnastics team holds a special meet every year where everyone gets together and wears pink in support of breast cancer research. It should be a good time! It has made me think of Jordan's Aunt Angel a lot today. Angel, a young, beautiful mother of 3, lost her life to cancer very recently and events like this are often bittersweet. I am wearing pink in her honor today! I hope y'all have a great weekend!

"Have I been sleeping?
I’ve been so still
Afraid of crumbling
Have I been careless?
Dismissing all the distant rumblings
Take me where I am supposed to be
To comprehend the things that I can’t see
Cause I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And " need to wake up
Now" I Need To Wake Up- Melissa Etheridge
Thank you so much for being there with me. It really meant a lot. Thanks for all you do to honor Angel.
