    It was last night ( July 25th, Tuesday) around 11:55 in terminal two of the San Antonio airport.

    I was there waiting for my mom to get in. She is here from China for about a month. Moom changed planes in Houston and, how funny is this!, caught the same connecting flight as Bruce.

    I didn't know this when he came to the baggage area. He was a couple minutes ahead of my mom.
    I saw him walking from a slight distance and had the thought, " Gosh that guy looks like Bruce."
    I thought he was still in Vegas and that I was seeing things because I was tired.
    But then he got closer and I saw Bruce's Team USA gear that he had slung over his arm.

    I wanted to go up an congratulate him on making the team but he looked really sleepy. I knew how much I just wanted to get home and get some rest and imagined he felt all the more so.
    He didn't see me ( I was about six feet away) as he headed to the luggage carousel so I just left it at that.
    Of course I had to text Kori and tell her all about it.

    I was doing that when my Mom came out. My mom knows me well. One of the first things she asked me was if I had seen Bruce.
    She told me that when she recognized Bruce on her plane, she told him, " Oh my daughter is going to be as excited to see you as she is me." LOL.

    I was still texting Kori as mom and I walked to the luggage carousel so it was complete coincidence on my part that we ended up about three feet behind Bruce.
    Mom thought of something she wanted to say to Bruce so she went up to him.

    I happened to look up briefly from my phone and saw that both Mom and Bruce were looking at me.
    Mom then said, " That is my daughter" and " Wave."

    I wasn't sure if that last part was a directive for me or Bruce. We both smiled and waved then I went back to my message. ( I type slow when I am tired. I know Kori is thinking, " Girl, your text was not that interesting. )

    Mom came back. I thought she was finished talking to Bruce but she just wanted to confirm with me that Bruce is a Christian. I said that he was and she went back and told him something more.
    ( I don't know what all Mom said. Maybe she will fill in the details later.)

    I just thought it was so cute and hilarious how my mom was suddenly the family " Spurs groupie" while I stayed back guarding luggage.

    Anyway it was a fun time. And now that I can finally tell you all my story, I am perfectly happy.

    Cute story, Angel.

    I didn't see your text message until 4:30am and then I thought it was too late to text back

    Your mom is very cool. I'm sure Bruce enjoyed talking to her.

    I briefly thought about waiting until around seven this morning to text you since it was so late, but then I realized that then was actually when you would likely be asleep.

    Should we assume that if it had been Rasho, you would have been standing much closer to him than 3 ft and that you wouldn't even be thinking about texting Kori?

    No details yet from Mom. Her sleep cycle is still crazy from the time difference. When I see her tomorrow I will get the full report.

    The part about her telling Bruce about how happy I would be to see him was either in the Houston waiting area or on the plane... I am not sure which.

    I am guessing she passed by him in first class when boarding.
