Basketball

Oh...I am so behind on these postings, but I will try to be better about that. I have so much to tell about our day today though. Emma had her last basketball game today and she made her first basket!!!!!!!!! Let me just set the tone for you......Emma's coach and TEAM players all made an effort in this. Every time they would get the ball they would pass to Emma and let her try. She has the dribbling down, the running, defense...but not the shooting. So, with the the entire gym watching and everyone knowing that it was her first attempt---she did it!!! I was screaming sooo loud and jumping up and down and yes...tearing up. In fact, I am tearing up just writing this. The whole gym lit up-everyone screamed-everyone cheered-and my baby girl felt like she just did the best thing in the world. Oh I am such a sap....if only I could replay this a few more times. Even her best friend on her team was jumping up and down and squeezing her with excitement. These people are the best! I am so glad that my Emma belongs to such a wonderful group of friends! She also got her first basketball trophy tonight as well!
