Evy shares the luck of the preemie
Again a team that Evelyn is rooting for wins. Of course by rooting I mean mommy dressing her up in the teams logo. But this kid is 4-0. Twice Evelyn cheered the University of Utah to victories, once over rival BYU and once as the two time BCS buster over Alabama. She also helped daddy's beloved University of Arizona win its first bowl game in this century. Then she turned her sights on the pros, donning her stylish Steeler bib/onesie set for each victorious play-off game.
As you can see Evelyn gets her Steeler fandom from her dad. I am a Raider Fan myslef, but I am happy to let Evelyn grow up a Steeler fan like her dad (if she chooses to be so). In fact, I have forbidden her from becomeing a Raider fan. I do not wish this heartach on my worst enemy, well ok maybe on a Bronce fan, but certinatly not my daughter. The Steelers are a good team, they are steady and stable over time, just like Evy's dad. I concider his Steeler fandom to be a gift he is offering to her. And why not. Evelyn made it through preemiehood with grit and determination. She approaches any challenge with a fire in her belly, steel in her eyes and a little bit luck. This is the gift she is offering to us, and the teams we root for. As for the Raiders, there is always next year.

Cute picture! Didn't know she had yet another talent. Keep cheering on those teams with Daddy, Evy!
What a cute pic! Evy is just good luck. And I love how beautifully you describe her and how she approaches challenges--your writing takes my breath away!
