Our friend, Gloria, is a wonderful mother.  I don’t think she realizes what a compliment this is. 

She and Mike have brought up two absolutely delightful girls – and it makes us happy to just be around them. 

We drove to Orlando to ESPN’s Wide World of Sports to watch the tail end of their older daughter’s field hockey game.  It was terrific to watch her play, and I felt such pride that our young women these days can get out there and play tough…and show their strength.

The Focused Young Athlete:

The Friends – Post-Game:

As Helen Lawrenson said, “If a woman is sufficiently ambitious, determined and gifted – there is practically nothing she can’t do.”

You go, Girl.
