“Awww, Barwis!”

My son drove me in my car to church last Saturday.   I also got my eyebrows done on Wednesday so those were the only two times I left my house this past week. Both times, as he was getting me out of the car, a song began to play.   Whether it was, “Ridin’ dirty” or “Apple Bottom Jeans”  I had the same response, “Awww, Barwis!”

I say that because both of those songs are songs I heard at and they remind me of Barwis Methods.   Sean understands that these songs remind me of Barwis and he pointed out that a seemingly inappropriate song causes me to smile and say, “Awww!”

I began to laugh because it’s true.  Hearing them in a gym where tons of athletes are working out is different then hearing it in my car with my son but my response is the same, “Awww, Barwis!”  I got an email yesterday regarding the upcoming First Step Foundation Golf Outing.  It is the fourth annual golf outing and I have been to all of them! My mom, my son, and me.   I watched the video that was in the email from last year about 15 times and have cried EVERY TIME because I know all of the people in the videos and I miss them terribly! I haven’t heard Mike’s voice for a very long time and that also made me cry!

I am no longer a, “First-Stepper” because I have not been there for close to two years because Dr. Frush (who was at last year‘s event)  told me not to return there until my knee stopped hurting. Well, my knee still hurts! I wake up in pain and go to sleep and pain. I hope to get back there one day soon and can’t wait to see everyone in July at the golf outing. It’s at U of M, so OF COURSE I’m going!
