The Stars Lined Up!

My daughter Kelsey plays varsity basketball for her high school, and the last 4 games or so, the Coach hasn't put her in the game to play. We don't know why, we think she isn't showing her full potential and that is how he chooses to let the player know. Then, Friday night at a home game, her Dad decides to come in from out of town with some of his family members to see her play. Also, her Coach from middle school days decides to come and watch Kelsey and a few other girls that were on the old team. I sat there on the bleachers thinking, "I am just going to cry, if he keeps her on the bench tonight of all nights." The game got started and he began to send in girls to relieve the starter players, but not Kelsey. It was looking like the same as the other games, until 2 minutes left in the 2nd quarter, he finally puts her in. The other mothers of the team started shouting "Go Kelsey!" Immediately, she recovered the ball and put it up for a nice lay-up. Yeah! was I proud! Her Dad got to see her play! She continued to play hard for the rest of the game, and they beat Captain Shreve 51-31. Did the stars ever line up for us!
