Shifting My Focus

Another season has ended.

My JV girls had a wonderful year, and ended last night in the district championship finishing 2nd. I'm so proud of what they've done. This is a team that 2 years ago only won 2 games. They finish this year 21-4 with a trophy. Hard work and committment pays off.

So this morning, I cry on and off again. :) I'm just like that. When a hard, stressful season is done, I sit and cry. The strength that carried me through is all used up, and I decompress. No sadness, just "done-ness".

But, I'm not totally done. Now it's the varsity's turn.

With all of my focus on them, we play today, then start our district tournament on Tuesday. I'm believing for big things. For favor, for fast feet, for shots to fall, and for unity among the team and their parents. That last thing is the biggest of all.

Along the way, God is teaching and showing and working. I have to admit that it concerns me that I can't feel Him, but I take comfort in the fact that He's there anyway, and He is moving. There have been lessons taught to these girls that I never thought that I'd teach to anyone their age. :) But what's so neat is that they are open to it!

And that is what my coaching is all about.

To God Be The Glory, great things He has done!

A New Year

Welcome 2010!

So far, it's been good: redo-ing the closet and hanging with old and new friends. I certainly hope this is a sign of things to come.

It's time to laugh. It's time to succeed. It's time to expect more and it's more than time to stand up for myself.

I hope all this for you, too!! :)
