Basketball Buddies

You can tell that Peter is getting ready to start Kindergarten soon, because he has this new found confidence and maturity about him that is so awesome to see.  Almost every day I find myself amazed at how capable and independent he's become.  It's so wonderful to see him blossoming into this fantastic little boy, so comfortable in his own skin.  Every Wednesday night we take Lizzy to basketball practice.  Sometimes various brothers of the players are hanging around, and the coaches are so good-natured they let them join in.  Peter had always hung on the outskirts, perfectly happy to just watch from the sidelines.  The last time we took Lizzy, Peter decided he was ready to join in.  Wow!  He was amazing.  He followed everything the coaches were saying, and was right in there with the girls playing his little heart out.  I was so very proud of him!  And thank goodness for darling Lizzy, who immediately took him under her wing and made sure he was right next to her following along.  I just love getting to watch these two together, getting so very big and so very, very capable!
