I wasn’t the only one up past my bedtime to watch history last night…

IN THE WORD:

IN MY LIFE:
Please tell me I wasn’t the only one crying last night every time one of these precious children misspelled a word during the National Spelling Bee! I’m not even going to get into a discussion about whether or not it should air on ESPN, but for whatever reason, it captivates me every year.
Last night, the spellers (who started the first rounds at 10:30am) spelled past midnight. Due to the unusually competitive group, officials made the decision to call any speller who made it through Round 20 a “Co-Champion”. Do you know how many successfully earned that title? 8!!! It was truly incredible.
If I were them, I’d want a vacation after that feat. Speaking of summer break, I just learned on IG this morning that Soundwaves Nashville is having another 72-hr Flash Sale. Use code P91 to book your package here: https://www.savings.com/z/gy5w

PRAYER FOCUS: Integrity
