my baby is Upward bound

Hollywood wanted to be like his buddy down the street and try basketball. David had always done Basketball through the EV Free church. there is a devotional time and since we go to church (or we try anyway) I'm fine with this. I'm not sure how FFP who is not religious in the least, will feel about it but its a little to late for that now. We talk openly about what the boys feel that God is and where his presence is all the time. This is just one more outlet for that.
Hollywood's first Basketball game is Saturday. I'm not sure how the pictures will turn out in that dark gym so I may just have to take a picture of him in his uniform before the game with a BBall outside before hand. He is good at shooting and getting baskets (a lot better than I ever was, just ask my cousin Allen). He is not so sure about going after the ball or even passing yet. I hope that there is a big difference between now and November when the end of the season is. I'm proud of him for trying something different. We will have real baseball where a ball is pitched by a machine next year. I hope this gives him the courage and self confidence to take control. We will see. There will be pix this week.
