Ok, how much ‘pride’ is allowed, before it really counts as a sin?? Some? A little? Because I might be in trouble here. I just went to penance and I don’t want to screw up already. BUT…………I’ve got a Mama brag alert here, and I’m about to spill!
{A} had her 3rd basketball game of the season today. Her team has had 1 loss and 2 wins so far. Today was one of those wins, and she was quite the player out on that court today! Her team won 18 – 11. 12 of her team’s points were hers!! She made SIX BASKETS!! A few were by lay-ups or close shots, and the other few were almost at the 3-point line, and real swishes. She even had a few rim bounces to boot. Her coach called her a ‘diamond in the rough’. Her team as a whole performed really well together, too. I was hootin’ and hollerin’ from the bleachers, as usual. I’m sure the parents in front of me were really glad they sat there. lol. I don’t expect to see them anywhere near me for the rest of the season. lol
It would be awesome if you had a moment to leave {A} a little congrats or message-comment of some sort. She just loves this game so much, and has worked really hard at being physically fit to play her best. Also, if I really need to get back into the confessional booth a.s.a.p., you can let me know that too. lol (yikes!)
GO SUN!!
R ~ Thank you so much! I didn’t know N and J played basketball too! “ASSISTS” are very important to a good game! Next time we see each other, maybe we can do some scrimmaging!
Love, {A}
YOU GO GIRL!!!! Your cousins are just finishing up their season here. Neither of them has made a basket all season, but they have made some good plays (assists, right?) – and they enjoy the sport very much! I hope you continue to enjoy playing for years to come. You certainly seem to have the talent! Keep up the good work!! Love, ~R.
Thank you Gina! I have a great team this year who really helps each other out om the court.Coach is always giving us tips too, so that also helps. I will keep doing my best too. Thanks, (A) 🙂
Woohoo, A!! Congrats on all those baskets. And way to work hard. I’m not very good at basketball…okay, so I’m lousy…so I can’t relate. But I can relate to the exhilaration and high that comes along with pushing yourself physically to accomplish something great. Although it is a team sport, I hope you can feel the satisfaction of what you did to take your team to victory. What a great thing that you can play a sport that you love so much. Keep up the good work and keep doing your best. AND keep enjoying the game!
Well I’ll leave you a comment, Honey. GOOD JOB!! Glad you are enjoying another basketball season and making so many new friends!
You’d think at least your aunts would leave a word or 2 for you. But I’m glad you brush these things off, better than I do. Thanks for being a good example for me. I LOVE YOU!! YOU GO GIRL!!
