Piano Man
Basketball fans may think the season started months ago when the Mavs started playing. For me, it began this week when my oldest and youngest boys started basketball practice. The 15-year-old has his first game Saturday -- if he can make it back in time from his tennis tournament! I feel especially good about this season because for the first time, my middle guy, the 13-year-old, who HATES organized sports has something to do. He started piano this year and he can't wait to get his fingers on the piano when he gets home from school. Funny, I still remember the season I urged him to try playing basketball. I told him it would be good exercise and besides, it was hard for me to believe he wouldn't like something his brothers enjoyed so much. But he was miserable, probably the only kid who didn't want to get off the bench. Kids are different and I'm so glad we found the right fit for him.
