Hard work pays off

Thought of the Day… “I do not know anyone who has gotten to the top without hard work. That is the recipe. It will not always get you to the top, but it will get you pretty near.” -Margaret Thatcher

Well, it’s been hard work, but they did it! The Lady Warriors have won more games than they have in four years! But best of all… they clinched their first playoff berth in four years!!

Here The Offspring is talking with the coach during a time-out.

“My Sarah” (The Offspring’s good friend who calls me Mom) joined me in watching the girls play. It was a close one… almost a nail-biter… The opposing team got the bases loaded with no outs and whew… we had some really great fielding… and they didn’t get any runs! We won 2-0!

Needless-to-say, they were quite happy after the game. One girl came running around the others… where is she going?

Oh… I see she thinks she needs to stand there… but, hey SillyOne, I can’t see The Offspring! MOVE!!

GREAT JOB tonight, Girls!!

I tried to get a picture of “My Sarah” and The Offspring, but that SillyOne came running again and jumped in… she sure makes it interesting to get photos… you know what?! She tried to do the same thing last week… Silly girl!
