Baller

It's March Madness, baby, and boy do we have a future baller on our hands! Last weekend, after some of the games, basketball fever had hit our neighborhood. When we were playing outside we noticed all sorts of big boys shooting hoops in their driveways. Lizzy sat admiringly watching the teenagers next door play two-on-two. She quickly got her own basketball (which is really my basketball from 20 years ago), and began dribbling around. We took turns dribbling down the street, and then playing defense. It was so fun! I loved watching her concentration, her smile, her eagerness to play. For the millionth time I felt so thankful that I'm able to run around and really play with my kids without giving it a second thought. How wonderful to run, to dribble, to have fun. I know why we all love March Madness so much. For just a moment, it makes us feel like we're all basketball players, like it's everyone's game........and it's the best!
