"No coward soul is mine
No trembler in the world's storm-troubled sphere
I see Heaven's glories shine
And Faith shines equal arming me from Fear
0 God within my breast
Almighty ever-present Deity
Life, that in me hast rest
As I Undying Life, have power in Thee!"
- Emily Bronte, No Coward Soul is Mine (her last poem)

Wow, what a game!
You had the underdog, battling back after having already been beaten once by the seemingly invincible champion.
You had the favored team, under the shadow of allegations of wrongdoing.
You had a close, close game that went down to the wire.
Congratulations to Blake's soccer team, the Fury, for winning the Cy Fair Classic tournament (10-year-old Rec division)! They defeated a team that had been caught fielding non-roster players the previous day, and had already beaten the Fury once.
The final score was 2 to 1. Blake scored one of our goals. Well done Blake!
(Oh, the Super Bowl was pretty good too, I guess :-)
Bill: I woke up on Sunday thinking about Blake and his soccer game, I had a feeling in my bones that they would win on Sunday.
Give him a big hug from us!
For our Super Bowl party after church we picked up McD's and played phase 10 with the Elliotts, a thrill a minute in Crimea, I know, I know you wish you were here in all this excitement but you must hold down the fort. Now on to Super Tuesday!
