It couldn't have been a more perfect night.
Your Favorite Baseball Player, Chris Sampson, waited to meet Zoe before the Astros - Brewers game...but traffic held us up. So he took the mound in relief, struck out one guy and got the other guy out.
Pretty good night. But his dear wife Heather had come up to meet Zoe and during the game, and asked us to come and meet Chris. So we joined Heather and Chris down deep inside Miller Park.
Chris held Zoe and she couldn't stop looking at him. He talked to her and her blue eyes locked on him and for minute after minute, they connected.
Sounds like Chris and Heather are working on a special event down in Houston where they hope to get some media and press around a signing raising some money for Baby Zoe. These are special people.
I told them tonight I am equally more moved and touched by the connections. Robbie with my family. Brooke with me. Heather with Zoe. Chris with Heather and Zoe. Chris holding Zoe after he had a great game. Me, staggered by it all.

Wow--just had to say what beautiful pictures---thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreg and Jen--you may see a tired couple, but all I see in that picture is faces that radiate warmth, joy, the love of the Father and immense sacrificial love. Beautiful to behold!! Thanks for your witness and allowing the world to learn from your human abandonment to our Creator.
Oh and of course being a Texan, couldn't let it go without playing the Texan pride card and saying of course your new favorite baseball player is on a Texas team----duh!!!--where else-he he!!
