Hi all,

Lynn will travel to the USA and Hawaï with the Dutch National Softball team on February 13, for a four week training tour. They will play against University teams.

In May and June she will be playing in Pensylvania, Illinois and Ohio.
Here is the schedule for those who like to know.
Hope the picture is not too big.

Keep your fingers crossed and pray that her knee will hold till after the Olympics and that they won't send her home, because in Japan two of the team have to go. They're training the whole year with 18 and they're only allowed to take 16 to the Olympics.

This will be her last year of active playing and wouldn't it be marvellous if she could close it with the Olympics.

But if not.....I'm a proud mom anyway.

I wish she were coming to Kansas...I think I might be the first one to pass on to her mother a huge hug!

Go, Lynn!

We'll all be rooting for her, Titia. Please give her our names & numbers in case she needs anything at all...

Allentown Pennsylvania is VERY close (I'm thinking about 15 minutes) to Liz, btw..

Hi Nan, I know it's close to Liz, but I don't think they will have a lot of free time to go on visits.

And thank you all for the good wishes. I've send the link to Lynn and she thought you were all adorable and very cute people

How exciting!  You have every right to be a proud mom.

I do wish her the very best.  It'll be hard to leave Hawaii in the winter, for sure.

Prayers for her knee strength are on their way.

God bless,

My goodness, Titia! Your daughter Lynn has definitey given her proud Mom bragging rights! ~ and rightly so! My buttons would be popping with pride as well.

... I just performed distant healing on both of her knees since I don't know which knee is her trick one.

Loving hug to you both,

Linda

Lol Linda, I'm sure your distance healing will help. It's the knee which is all wrapped in light blue (right one). She told me today that it's doing quite well at the moment.

Silly me! I'm not very observant!

~ There, I just gave her "RIGHT" knee another blast of healing energy!

I'm glad that her knee is feeling better! ~ See how fast distant healing works! lol

Hugs for both you and your dear daughter Lynn!

Titia,

What beautiful snapshots of an active daughter in action! You must be very proud of her! I checked out the schedule to see if she'd be anywhere near us, but it looks like it'd be about 4-5 hour drive. I wish I could go see her and send with her an Ohio Buckeye from our State tree. Good luck to her and good health. I hope she can play in the Olympics!
