All you really knew was there was a goal at each end of the gym. My immediate thought was "Wow, Joyce has changed. She's learned this game and supports those who play it." Ha. Ha. This post shows the woman I know. You certainly DO support those who play it, coach it, cheer for it. You're a lover of people, and you're "loving" them as you sit in that gym. Your blog post is MOST excellent! It's a fabulous read, and it's all true. Elton & I learned to respect Coach Fellenstein years ago when we were at Corn & he was in OKC. He IS so deserving of this win, this honor; and I know, like you, he's lifting up the young women who accomplished it, taking little to no credit himself. It is a marvelous "God-thing." I love you all, and I love this thrilling honor bestowed upon those of Corn Bible Academy.

Such a wonderful, wonderful group of girls... and all the adversity they had to overcome with Coach's health in the recent weeks... it was all meant to be. It made each of them stronger and more determined than ever. Our God is amazing! And I love love love our little school out amongst the tumbleweeds and dirt devils in the middle of nowhere really... but it's mine... and I wouldn't trade it for anything.Roshellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00129010530909248918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218904713666570182.post-12949578061349910292011-03-06T15:30:46.583-07:002011-03-06T15:30:46.583-07:00I think you could stretch this to meet the prompt....I think you could stretch this to meet the prompt.

You wrote this story so well that I could have been sitting there next to you cheering the girls on!
