Player of the Week leads to MVP, and plenty of grace
When oldest daughter Shannon came into the world, many moons ago, I was a young whippersnapper sports editor at the Atascadero News, owned by the three gracious Porter brothers, Judd, Jim and Jack. The brothers three allowed me to name Shannon "The Player of the Week" that September, despite it being in the middle of another championship football season for the formidable Atascadero Greyhounds. I followed the format, typed in my baby girl's height and weight, added a picture of the latest "Team Derry" member, waxed the finished product up (we don't do that anymore, it's all electronic and digital) and pasted it onto the sports page. Fast forward – and life sure does go fast – to this week and that Player of the Week has given birth to an MVP, who has had to fight through a crummy infection right out of the gate. But the newest addition is doing well after a few spooky days, and so is mom. The MVP's first name is down to two choices, but her middle name, appropriately, is 99% likely to be Grace. She came into the world exactly on her due date, Sunday, Oct. 30, and weighed in at 7 pounds nine ounces stretching out 21 inches long. For Halloween, my daughter says, "Cupcake" wanted to be an astronaut, thus the oxygen bubble which is now, thankfully, history. I'm just thrilled that in a few Halloweens, I'll be able to find her an astronaut costume and hold her hand while we're trick-or-treating. That's grace and I'm a grateful "Papa" for many reasons.
