Hi!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful start to this new month! As you know, my son Caleb is currently playing basketball and I wanted to give a quick update as the season winds down. His team is currently 8 – 9. They had a rough couple of games at the beginning of their season, but they have worked so hard learning to play together. There is a huge improvement in the way the play now compared to the way they played in November! They Tuslaw Basketball program’s motto is: “Play Harder, Play Smarter, Play More Together.” They are proving this to be true! Good job, Tuslaw Mustangs 7th Grade Basketball Team! Caleb is #40!
Have a great weekend,
Kristy
At sunset on Tuesday began the celebration of Hanukkah. Hanukkah is known as the “festival of lights.” It is first and foremost a celebration of freedom won by the individuals who were willing to fight for their religious beliefs.
On Thursday, my son Caleb turned the Big 13! Watching him grow up, learning how to make good decisions, and taking on greater responsibilities has made this mommy so proud. His fun loving way of life is infections to everyone around him. I wasn’t bothered as much when my other kids turned 13, but for some reason, I can’t shake the overwhelming feeling of sadness. Caleb is my baby, and in my mind, he should not be allowed to grow up. Wishful thinking…
My son Caleb has his first basketball game tonight! I am so excited I can hardly stand it. They have been working really hard since the beginning of November. It couldn’t be more perfect! So today I am sending a great big shot out to the Tuslaw Mustangs 7th Grade Basketball players! I will be there cheering you on to victory. Take it to the net, boys!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! I sure did! Can you believe it is the first weekend in December? As I am writing this blog, we are having our first snowfall of the year. I don’t know that I am quite ready for it… but ready or not, it’s here!
