March Madness

My Ethan loves basketball and is playing for the Junior Flash this year. His team has a record of 7-4 and they are playing tournament games right now. They have had a game each night this week with another tonight and if they win, they will play tomorrow as well.
Last night I could tell he was holding back so I told him after the game to be more aggressive and he told me he was afraid he would hurt someone. He is 5'9 or 5'10 and 160 lbs. so I guess he has good reason to worry. Most of the kids on his team are quite tall for their age but the kids on the other teams are what kids should look like for 7th graders. Anyway, it has been fun to watch how much this team has improved in such a short time.

i know. every time he stands next to me i feel shorter. his coaches are both very tall-i should measure ethan to see just how tall he is. by the way he won his game tonight and will play tomorrow.

How did Ethan do in the next game? He and Ty will have to play some basketball this summer. Tyson loves it too!

well, they lost by two pts. they were down by one and it was their ball but they turned it over and had to foul and the other team made their foul-shot and won by two. a couple of cute boys shed some tears but the coach assured them that most of the team would be back next year. the other two big guys will be gone though. so fun to watch!
