3 Things, but i like the middle one the best

Amanda had three things on her mind last: eat dinner at Subies, see Heather and Cop (Heather started out as Amanda's after school sitter 7 years ago and has become the mainstay in Amanda's life, now Heather is married to a TXK police officer Amanda calls Cop), and at bowling beat her rival.

Dinner was great, as is the usual with Subies Deli on a Monday night, Heather and Cop joined us and surprised us with a great honor. Heather is pregnant with her first child, a little girl who she and cop have given the middle name of Amanda. As Heather said, "Amanda is and always will be my best friend." It swelled me up so much I wanted to change Amanda's middle name to Heather.

And finally there was the bowling. Amanda took down her rival in the first game by opening up with a spare and never looking back. Even when he got a strike in the 8th and the 10th it was too little too late. The second game didn't go as well but Amanda seldom cares about losing one game if she wins another.

This morning when I dropped Amanda at school she jumped out of the car yelling, "Amanda Amanda Amanda, Cop Heather!" I explained what she was talking about to the teacher and then Amanda went on into the school with a big smile.
