A clinch seemed like such a cinch...

Arriving to the game I thought I would be a part of Indians history. A clinch and a trip to the World Series. Followed by fireworks going off and someone streaking across the field. Boy, oh boy, was I wrong. I should of known better when Boston hit a lead off homer. C.C. just wasn't playing like this was a championship game. Maybe he is making bets. Someone please tell me why we just let Manny stand comfortably in the box? So that when he gets a pitch he likes he clobbers it to right center. I'm not saying hit him with the ball, I am saying force him to move. I can see these things and I don't like sports. Where was Eric Wedge or the pitching coaches?! It was a poorly played and poorly coached game. I think we got a little cocky and it kicked us in the balls. Hopefully we can win it tomorrow in Boston.

In other news Ella had her 15 month check-up today. Everything looks great and she is in the 90th percentile for weight and height. She's stayed right on track so I must be doing something right. November 7th is surgery day for her. She will have her PDA fixed. If you go on to webmd you can type in PDA (its a pediatric heart condition) and read all about it and the procedure. So far she should be able to come home that night. I just pray that everything goes well and the doctors treat her like she is there own. It's a very scary thing to put your childs life in someone else's hands. I told the cardiologist to make sure I don't hate him- because I will if something goes wrong. Please keep Ella in your prayers.

Here's to celebrating Sweetest Day with a trip to the World Series and with someone you love.
