Last night Ella had an awesome game. So awesome that I have put a couple of clips on here of her. I know you will be as happy to see my child score these baskets as I am. Because we are that kind of friend. You and I .

Ella is number 5 on the yellow team. She rocks! She kept watching this video last night when we got home. Look mom, do you see where I just walk around her and steal the ball? Look mom, do you see how I drive it up and score? Look mom, Look mom... you get the idea.

Tonight is a different story. Tonight they lost in OT 13 to 14. It was heartbreaking. I don't think that even these coping skills will help!(even if I teach her to do them behind the ref's back) It is so hard to see a group of nine year old girls bawling like they were. I wish I could have made this game be like the others. Everyone has to lose sometime...

For those of you wondering, no improvement with the camera. But tomorrow is a new day!

She has some skills there! It was great to see her play. Some parents just boast to boast but your girls got skiilz! Boast away Baby! Way to go Ella. I played basketball all through highschool and had offers to play for some small colleges. She is going to be great! Were you a player?

HAHAHAHAHA was I a player? Oh honey, I have always been a member of the sit still and read a book or just stare out the window club.

The only thing I play are board games!
