Represent

There is a whole lot of attention given to people (especially football players) who right now are kneeling during the national anthem.  They are protesting the rights of blacks.  I loved one picture that is not getting a lot of publicity.  Two football players helping first responders hold the flag.  The two football players are on the Detroit Lions and were former BYU players.  This makes my heart happy.
Kyle Van Noy & Ziggy Ansah
Ziggy Ansah is from Ghana.  He came to the United States on an academic scholarship to BYU.  There he learned to play football.  I'm pretty sure he understands what amazing opportunities we are able to have that people that live in other countries are not lucky enough to enjoy.

Anyways, Jorja went to the batting cages today with her softball team. I think she had a great time.  We stopped of at the church on our way home to attend the combined Young Women and Relief Society activity.  We made lunches and hygiene kits for the homeless shelter. Stockton was going to play frisbee golf (I even borrowed one of Matt's frisbees), but the activity was cancelled.  Too bad.  I think he would have had a great time.
