A hard day.....


Well, I'm sorry fellow bloggers that I haven't been very committed to updating my blog because we have been busy following Jacob's basketball team. They played in the tournaments the past two weeks and they were doing very well. They played last night and they ended up losing after playing a very emotional and tough game. It is so funny how as a parent you get so into the game and no matter how rational you are you could easily end up becoming completely belligerent!!! Jacob did well. They had only lost one game and it was by one point but he cried for an hour straight! This time he didn't cry-he was just mad! He felt bad for his teammates that they couldn't win the championship! That was his own words! I am so proud of him! How even though he isn't the "star" player he plays with everything that is in him!! He is so determined and driven that he amazes not only me but especially Kevin. Kevin, who was a pretty good athlete as a kid, has always said that he never was as serious and focused as Jacob is! We tell Jacob it's good to lose games- it just makes you stronger and makes you try harder next time!
