Inspiring Celebrations

The 161st day of 2017, in palindromic form, was a great one.  So many celebrations on 6/10/2017, the main one we attended was for our good friend Warren Bigelow.  I was Warren's Confirmation Mentor and, as the brother of one of Alexa's best friends, we have often found ourselves in the same place discussing baseball, school. soccer, history, and current events.  Warren also shares (with his family) my love of board games (also with my family).  We have had epic competitions and I hope that, even though he is going away to college, this will happen again in the future.  Then, back home, we witnessed birthday and graduation celebrations for other kids.  I know things are crazy these days, but the youth I meet inspire me to have hope for the future.  I know that Warren will do amazing things.  And, with apologies to Greer, I had to use this song.
