Even though I don’t blog here anymore…
So, I haven’t written in my blog in some time, and I have had several people asking about how the Caffs are doing, so I am going to try to do an update. However, I can’t do it now – with end of government fiscal year and end of quarter and other aspects of life that are overwhelming, I have supreme writer’s block. However, I just want to point your attention towards a fine young man who definitely does not have “writer’s block”. Young Nick Cafferky, only a student at Virginia Tech for less than a month, is already a “Sports Staff Writer” for the Virginia Tech Collegiate Times. As if that weren’t enough, his first byline as a writer, is a front page, above the fold article entitled “Rugby on the Rise”. Please check it out at http://www.collegiatetimes.com/frontpagepdfs/20090917.pdf.
Anyway – that is all I wanted to share right now. All is well with the Caffs, God be praised, and I continue to narrate our life on Facebook. If you are still following our exploits, thanks for your interest, comments and prayers. If you have not, perhaps I will update this forum after the quarter ends – or maybe while I’m traveling on business next week to Seattle (I figure I will have plenty of alone quiet time at least in my hotel room.)
I hope you all are moved by the fact that nothing can stop a person who has motive power, talent and a desire to achieve. Nick is on his way to realizing his dreams, and we will continue to dream big for both of our sons. They are extraordinary young men. I wish I could take credit for that but Mike and I are just blessed that God chose us to be Brendan and Nick’s parents.
Have a blessed day and may you all realize a hope or a dream this week. I know we have. With gratitude and great faith in God, in the Name of Yeshua the Christ!
Elisa, What a great post and so much fun to see Nick’s name and column and new title as staff sport writer. Amazing young man and thanks to our Amazing God for all His blessings on your dear family even in the midst of the hardest ordeal I pray you will ever face. Nick is a total encouragement to us all and we are so blessed to know him and you.
Much love in His Name,
