My daughter has spent the past week staying after school every day until 7:00 p.m.  She’s been doing this for two reasons.  First, to stay after with her friends and use the gym to practice up on her basketball skills and second because team try outs have been held after her practice times.  She’s been one heck of a trooper, after getting home about 7:30, she showers, eats dinner and then does her homework before bed time.  As soon as her head hits the pillow she’s been out cold, but in the mornings is up and going with no hesitation.  She loves basketball, last year was the first year she played and she had such an awesome time!  And even though I am her mom and am some what partial, I think she’s pretty good at it too!

Anyway, they have one last quick practice after school and she will know by 4:00 whether or not she made the cut and will be on the team.  I offered to come to school early so that I could be there when she finds out whether or not she made the cut, but she said no.  My mothers instinct wants to go anyway, but I need to respect her feelings, so I’ll wait and pick her up at 4.

So cross your fingers, say a prayer, send good vibes, do what ever it is that sends good luck to someone PLEASE, because I know she is going to be crushed if she doesn’t make the team!  I’ll update tonight and let you know what happens!!!
