Tonight was my last practice with my 4th and 3rd grade boys basketball. It was alot of fun we had the boys play against their Dads. The problem is Jordon's dad has never been there, the solution... My cousin Craig stepped in. What a job he did. I am not sure who had more fun the boys or their dads. I know it is something they will never forget. Really hit home this is what we were doing. Giving these boys positive memories. Something they will take with them even when they get older.
I will miss these boys more than I thought possible. Each one taught me something and each one is something special. Going through my list...
Alex... quite and reserve but once you get him going he doesnt stop and once he smiles he just melts your heart.
Brennon... my comedian always there to make me smile even when it was a joke on me.
Kevin...my challenge...always truthfull in he feelings even when they werent good. and stronger emotionally than anyother child his age should be. Kevin I will NEVER forget from hunting deers to always wanting to play more, and never backing down!
Danny... my bundle of energy they say good things come in small packages this boy is nothing but dynamite and always on the go. He never let his size hold him back and was our biggest scorer!!!
Zach...my sweetheart...always kind always sweet and always willing to be to do what is told.
Dylan... you can see the spirit of the Lord in this child..just one that is still so innocent and excited about every experience and ALWAYS had a smile.
Carter... The muscle strong and independent already he will go very far in life.
Tyler... my mature one... This boy has a talent for basketball I can see one day watching him in college but was never once arrogent and always played as a team with every member of his team!
Jordon... what can a parent say about their child when they are coaching them. I expected more out of him than the rest. The funny thing was when I didnt say anything he improved more than anyone on the team.
I am proud of my boys and will never forget the season. They have done wonderful so far being undefeated YET never once did they brag or celebrate after the game. It wasnt my doing it was the simple fact that the boy were just good as a team. Each one brought something different and I have been very blessed to be a part of the program. Will I do it again. UHHMMMM not for sure about that one. But I am proud of them and what they taught me. I could do something that I wasnt wanting to do but what God told me I needed to do!
I loved what you had to say about your boys! Enjoyed reading your post!
