Belated Wifflefest - 20 day until WIfflefest

Being the creator of an amazing event like the Justin Osborne All American Wifflefest, I get noticed quite a bit on the street while I am out and about town. The most common comment I get besides the usual "You are so awesome, thank you for being born", is "Wifflefest is a little late this year"? That is a very astute observation, and yes, Wifflefest is being held a little late this year. It has actually been 461 days since the last Wifflefest, much to long for our hearts to wait. This is due in fact to a couple of circumstances.
The first and most important circumstance: Osborne procreation. If you didn't know, we had a little girl born this summer. Her name is Ellie Osborne, and now is part of the planning committee at Wifflefest. She is two months old, loves smiling, slobbering and taking naps. Her goal for this year's Wifflefest is to stay awake for most of it and to still maintain the Baby Wise schedule. She is a good girl and welcome addition to the Wifflefest staff.
The second set of circumstance involves mother nature. It seems like most people don't enjoy 100 degree temperatures and high humidity. We decided to give everyone a break and wait until it was a little cooler outside. We are praying for a beautiful day to have Wifflefest. Much like the Osborne procreation, creation of a beautiful day for Wifflefest is in fact, God's choice. May He bless us with a great day and may He be blessed by our joy
