We had some excitement here last week as L made the VARSITY team at his Jr. High. As a 7th grader, this was quite an accomplishment for him. Things were pretty tense around here for a couple of days as we waited for word to see if he made first cut and then if he had made the team. It was super exciting to see his name on the varsity list.
As all major accomplishments call for, we decorated the house with balloons and banners.
So L had his first game (pre-season) last night. He did an awesome job of riding the end of the bench with the two other 7th graders.
Finally, with about 2 1/2 minutes to go, he got the call.
It was so much fun to see him play! I thought that he might be nervous and intimidated, but he came out fighting.
It was a genuine butt-whooping by the other team, but in the end they all held their heads high and boarded the short-bus for home.
