Determination


Let me introduce you to one determined kid. Noah (in red and grey coat) is my neighbor and he LOVES sports. Monday after school the temperature was 4 degrees above O. Noah and his friend Thomas were shooting baskets. I hear him out shooting baskets before the school bus comes in the morning - even when it's cold. His grandma told me that he made 22 baskets in one 1/2 of a game recently. All that practice pays off. Besides being good in sports he's a great kid.

Awe the energy of kids!!!! Wish I had some of it!!!! Kids don't seem to notice the cold, do they???? Your little neighbor may get a basketball scholarship someday. He sounds determined.

Hugs,
Betsy

It's so nice to hear about kids like these Diane. I really think if they get into sports programs that it keeps them out of trouble.
