Soccer is never over

Chloe' has really had no summer. She and her friend decided to take a summer Geometry class so they can get ahead(yes really it was her idea). So Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday she goes to math from 8am to 2pm. This alone is mind numbing to me 6 hours of Geometry during any time of year. Then she decided to work out with Viewmont High soccer team this summer in hopes of making the team this year. Last week her district team started their practices. So Tuesday she goes to soccer at 7am and then Geometry at 8am then at 7pm she goes to soccer. I don't know where she finds the energy but I wish she would share.

Today she has her first tournament with Viewmont. They picked a few freshmen that have been working out with the team to do this tournament with Viewmont at Weber State University. I have not seen her this nervous ever. I am sure she will do fine.

Daniel Craig Record

Last week we lost a dear friend to the family. Danny came into our lives about 5 years ago. Chloe' was adding my space friends to her profile. Danny popped up as a Demolay (boys organization with in the Masonic family). It said that he lived in West Valley. Yes I know what you are thinking, I was dumb and didn't monitor who she added at the time. Chloe' and Danny got talking on my space and then Chloe' introduced Danny to Camilla. Cami and Danny became close, and at one time were boyfriend and girlfriend for several months. As time grew on Cami and Danny became really close friends. We have had Danny and his brothers to our house several times. We have also had his parents to our house.

Cami and Danny were boyfriend and girlfriend when he became ill. After several test they discovered that it was Leukemia. Danny has fought very hard and was in remission for a while. His leukemia came out of remission. Danny had a bone marrow transplant, his brother was a perfect match but the treatment (radiation and Chemo) were too much for his body. Danny passed away on Monday June29. This has been really hard and Cami and Chloe' and I dare say it hasn't been very easy on Jeff and I . We loved Danny and welcomed him into our house like he was one of our own. It makes me stop and think, yes I know he is in a better place and in no pain now it is just painful for the people left behind. I have felt helpless to comfort anyone in my family and anyone else. I also know there is supposed to be a lesson in this but I can't see what it is.
