my daughter was awarded with the most valuable player award for her school volleyball team. i was so proud and surprised. she is only a 5th grader and while she is very good i thought there was one 6th grader who was better than her. i would have picked the 6th grader over a 5th grader as it is a 6th graders last year at the school. oh well, still very proud. one of the comments that the coach said about her is that she has a humble heart. WOW. of all the things that he said that was the one that brought the tears. my kid is being perceived as being humble. not that i think she isn't but when someone else tell you it shocks you ( in a good way :)) i just need to keep praying for the humility to continue and that it will rub off on the rest of us :). not that we are proud or boastful its just that we are human and try to do things in our own ability instead of trusting God for provision.
I"M RAMBLING
good night!

Hooray! Way to go McKenna!! I'm so proud too, though not really surprised! :) With a mom that loves to play sports and who gives great encouragment and support....Kenna could do anything! That's sweet music to a mother's heart, to hear that your child has a humble heart.
McKenna is such a sweet girl...(at what age do they become young women?) she's very mature (compared to her peers in our old sunday school class) and has a heart for other people. Her prayer requests were always for someone else who was sick or hurt or something. I love your kids Jen!
Let's definately get together over the holidays!! Tell McKenna congratulations!!
