I really could not have cared less about the game of basketball just 4 months ago. I was a cheerleader for it a million years ago but I didn't know what I was cheering about (and didn't care). I just remember the stinky gym. I watched a 'Magic' game forever ago, which was kinda fun. Any live college/pro game is. But, again, it didn't turn me into a basketball fan one bit. I didn't care. All that changed when I casually asked my son if he wanted to play this year. I was sure he'd say no (why would he care?) but, alas, he said "Yes!". And now, I have to say, I LOVE BASKETBALL! I still don't get it, but I'm enjoying it.
It helps when your favorite player is your favorite kid. In the entire season Joshua only scored once (he's not that great -- sshhh!), but I'm really hoping he wants to play again next year. By then, maybe I'll know some clever things to shout besides "Woo-hoo!" occasionally. We've got a lot to catch up on -- but now I care! Who knew???

Oh how cute Jennifer. He is really growing up fast, isn't he? I have the picture of our boys having a tea party after playing basketball that day. I love that memory.
Yeah for you!
