This basketball season has been quite interesting. Christopher couldn't play because of his brain injury. This was very hard for him. He loves to play basketball. Joseph had a great time this season.
Emily has been the challenging one this year. It was her first year playing. I decided to coach to give her a little help. Christopher was my assistant coach since he couldn't play. Here he is giving some pointers before they begin.
Emily has been very frustrated this season. This has been overwhelming and difficult for her. During her last game she exploded as a basketball player. She was dribbling, guarding and shooting like never before. She was even running. This girl does not run. It was amazing. She was so proud of herself. She got so pumped up and asked if she could sign up for soccer. I am so proud of her. Coaching has been challenging. I feel like I don't know what I'm doing, but to see how far some of these girls have come is a joy I did not expect.
I am the mother of four beautiful children. My sweet Sarah watches over us from Heaven. She is my angel. Emily is my creative child. You never know what mystical creature she will be next. Joseph is my Mr. All American. He is good at and loves sports. He is a good friend and a really good boy. Christopher is my musician. He loves to play the drums and guitar. He is a beautiful song writer. My patient husband, Dennis, is working at the county jail, but is really a secret agent that doesn't get paid. Don't tell anyone. It's top secret. I am loving serving in the young women's program. It is a great joy in my life. I also am a substitute teacher and sometimes I substitute as a housewife, but not very often. My door is always open, but my house is never clean.
