Like I said in my last blog I had a situation with my thrasher which caused me to go running to my home-my hockey home that is (the gwinnett Arena). I knew my mom would be at home all day monday since it was martin lurther king day but I just had to get out of the house. I did however feel a little guilty leaving her alone but I knew she had stuff to do and I would just be getting in the way. I also knew that she'd be happy that I was g
etting out of the house and seeing my friends. I stopped claiming the thrashers as my boys after the situation had come up so I knew it was time to see th only boys I had left, it had been forever- or at least it just seemed like it. So I got up that morning and washed my car, got all dolled up- what I was going to see my boys I had to look cute!!- and went to see my boys. I got there early and was ableto get a good parking spot-cause that's just how I roll. After I got my ticket I went outside to wait where I found one of my friends, Dianne--yay!! She has the 2nd cuttest boy ever--what I had to put my cousin's baby as 1st!
! Dianne's little boy likes to smack the boys as they come out which is super cute and funny. As I went in I already felt loved, welcomed and needed. I found my seat and placed my jacket there and went to see Krystal who has missed seeing me at the rink which felt good- I like being missed. After seeing the coolest girl ever-besides...ok yeah the coolest- I went to see Emily and Dianne. I also wanted to see if they knew if mama Linda was there. When I was over there seeing the girls out come the boys! It was sooo good to see them again, I missed them-I actually missed them. It's sad I missed them more than I can say, I have no clue why though
. I got back to my seat to watch Forney and Siddall warm up- they looked mighty fine! It took all I had not to say "Heeellloooo Handsomes" as they came out. Sometime before the 1st period a guy came and sat down by me. I introduced myself even though I planned to sit by my friends later. So we started to talk and I told him I was there for my boys mainly Forney and Sids which wasn't a lie my beautiful sids had invited me to a previous game I wasn't able to go to! As the boys go back to the locker room and Krittle and the ice crew came out the excitement start to build. I knew I was doing the right thing by being there for my boys. I was truely there for no other reason but for my boys. About 20 minutes later the lights went down and
out come the boys!! I was going wild for my favorites-yes I play favorites. Then the 1st puck drop and all that happens but what caught my eye was the checkers goalie. He came to his goal after the anthem and does the cross symbol Catholics do before they pray then he began to pray as he did people were yelling at him to get his attention. He was so focused as I sat there and watched him pray after he finished he did the symbol again and put his gear on. The guy sitting next to me continued to talk as I watched my boys. I was nice and held a conversation with him but I made sure I gave my boys their attention. I was happy I paid some attention to my sweet little forney some attention because he totally scored a goal. I went nuts screaming "Way to go Forney!!!" I was soo happy and excited for him. After that there was one more goal for our team and at least one goal for their team in the 1st period. I stayed in my seat- I felt like it was rude to leave the guy I just met. Maximus came out for the intermission game and then the ice crew came out. Then the 2nd period started and I stayed put. At some point I felt like I should look at Krystal, when I did she was looking at me smiling. I about asked her what but I didn't I just smiled back. I loved seeing Krittle again. Everything was normal it was 4 to like 3 in the 2nd and life was good. Some where either at the end of the second or the start of the 3rd the checkers tied it up. After the 2nd I was tired and had to walk so I went and got a shirt for my boys signafter the game. Then I got back to my seat just in time to see my boys skate back out for the 3rd. I was super excited until we had 4 minutes left and the Checkers pulled ahead then with a minute left they scored again! I was so bummed for my boys and for coach I knew they had it. I knew they could have won, if they truely tried. So then at the end of the game I walked to the line of people who were waiting for the boys to come out and signed stuff. I waited for what seemed like a long while and all of a sudden out strolls some of my boys and the crowd went wild. They kept coming out sometimes in 2s or 3s but sometimes just by themselves. I waited in line finally getting up to the 1st table seeing Mifsud, forney, Schellers, Berti and a few boys I had seen before. they all asked me what was new and was genuinly happy to see me there. Then the second table was full of boys I reconginzed and a couple I didn't. I loved seeing my boys again. I heard Sulli's accent and about teared up. I got through the line and had a lot of my boys ask me what was new. I knew then that things had to change. I was walking out and saw one of the "Babies" (new guy) walking away from the table I excused myself from the guy I met at the game and asked the very tall, very handsome baby his name. His name was Sean. I told him I was trying to learn their names and he kinda laughed and said that I better remember his. I told him that I would. As Sean crossed over my path to sit and talk on his phone I almost grabbed my camera and took a picture beacuse there's just something just so artsy about a tall guy slouched over in a chair, in the right way of course. But I didn't I was good! I got to my car and made sure noone was watching and acting suspecious as I started my car and teared up just a little bit. My reunion with my boys was over but I knew now that I had to still pray for the thrasher and that was it. I had to focus on these boys, they liked me and they geniunly cared about me being there. I'm now in the process of getting coach to allow me to pray over these amazing young men. I truely thank them for changing the direction of the ministry in 1 afternoon.
