I came across this video and had to post to my blog.
As a parent, I understand the value of sports and all that it teaches. I pray that my children have learned good sportsmanship, patience, and the importance of teamwork. I believe that my girls would have the strength to put someone else first, in essence, to share the glory. This is what I tell myself when I watch something as powerful as the video.
I can only imagine the overwhelming joy, love and gratitude that the parents felt upon watching this event unfold. The mother; of the coach who put the young player on the court, of the boys on the same team who continually passed the ball, of the young man on the opposite team who passed the interception, and of the young player who finally got the last basket of the game.
If I can be so overcome with emotion after watching the video, I can only imagine how it affected the many players and spectators who were lucky enough to be in the bleachers that day!
About Me

- Hello everyone! My name is Sandra Cantin and I am a recent graduate of the Early Childhood Education Diploma program. I am taking a professional communications class and learning the ins and outs of social media. I hope to develop my writing by becoming an active blogger! I have been married for 20 years and have three beautiful teenage daughters. Together we enjoy camping, card nights, family get-togethers and geocaching. Personally, I enjoy reading, taking pictures (mostly of my girls), scrapbooking family memories and romantic comedy movies. I hope my blog inspires conversation about issues common among parents.
So true Sandra.....what an amazing video! I think the Mom of that boy would have been so happy!!! It's always amazing to see the good things that still happen with teenagers!!! They have so much potential that just needs to be tapped into!!!
