Near the end of last year, I volunteered to start coaching girls basketball at the Boys and Girls club down the street. I was unsure about it at first, but realized that I didn't need to be too skilled to teach 6-8 year old girls! My team is the Liberty. We practice each week and play a game on Saturdays. It's been a lot of fun and exciting to see their improvement. We've come from a game in which the girls barely made it through and we had a lot of tears to actually winning most of our games! So far we are second place and getting ready for the finals this Saturday :) This has been a great way to get more involved in the community and connect with others who are passionate about our kids. As a result of being involved there, I have had a couple of parents ask me about their children getting involved in our program. Also, I've been asked to teach an art class...I'm still praying about this possibilty and might tag-team it with my roommate!
