Shooters

So, as  far as what I love watching my kids do,

basketball tops my list.

Every summer, we spend hours a day at the high school gym

where they sharpen their skills on the courts.

This year, Elle is the only girl in her group.

Today, she won a game of speed against the boys and

as we walked out of the gym, she said,

"Mom, one of the boys made fun of another boy and said, 'Ha, ha a girl who doesn't

know how to play basketball beat you!'"

So, I asked Elle, "What did you say?"

She smiled and explained, "I told him, 'What are you laughing at? I beat you, too!'

THAT'S MY GIRL!
