Frances is Officially a "Ball-er"



As many of you know Frances is sporty spice and has been DYING to play in an organized sport. She attends every game of Henry's with vigor and always plays with the kids afterwards. Without fail, she holds her own with those 2nd graders. The girl has some serious spunk.

Last week she had her first basketball practice. Thankfully, Mark was out of town, so we didn't need to fight over who would get to take her. We even had neighbors offering as they knew it was be Frances-tastic. 

Well, it was just the best. One of those - "I LOVE" being a parent moments. She was so excited, she tried SO hard, and she led the little group of 4 year olds through her gym. Most of them hadn't played basketball or watched a game, so she was just so EXCITED to show them where the free throw and baseline, explain who LaMarcus Aldridge is, and so much more. At the end of practice her coach came over and said "Wow" about three times.

Classic Frances.

I love being this little girls mom.
