I enjoyed your comments about your...Hi Jolene,<br /> I enjoyed your comments about your "men" loving the games of basketball. My husband and 3 sons enjoy it as well. My granddaughter who just graduated this year also enjoyed playing the game in highschool. The others that are coming up enjoy it very much. Actually, the boys love whatever sport happens to be in season. I have often thought that sports doesn't build character necessarily, but certainly "reveals" character. When the chips are down, and our team is losing ground, it takes stamina and character to "fight" until the end. I always told my boys: "Do your very best in EVERYTHING - whether it is in the classroom in math, out witnessing for the Lord, or on the basketball court". Of course, since I have two sons who have done much coaching, at elementary, junior high, highschool, and even college level, I have come to love the game as well. I attend many sports events to watch our grandchildren play. What fun! What enjoyment! It brings back the days of watching our sons play! God is good to allow us this privilege!<br /> Thanks for allowing us to see that side of your sweet family! It was indeed a blessing! <br />Love & Prayers,<br />Mrs. HickmanMrs. Hickmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390476432012676756.post-25101523749516417562011-06-19T22:39:12.914-07:002011-06-19T22:39:12.914-07:00So cute!!!!

I can think of a few guys...Awww...Sounds familiar.<br /><br />I can think of a few guys around here who, in their spare time, also are caught looking in on the latest sports updates. It's fun to watch/hear them go from rejoicing over spiritual victories won to sitting around the livingroom excited about the latest sports champion. I think it is one way of de-stressing over constant ministry pressures.<br /><br />Hugs to your ((HANDSOME)) men from me!!!!<br /><br />I love you!<br />AnnaAnnanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8390476432012676756.post-75333984345580422712011-06-13T12:59:54.344-07:002011-06-13T12:59:54.344-07:00FUN!
