Day 50 ~ One-on-One
Feb 19,
2014
My first:
I played one-on-one basketball with my grandson, Tyler.
What a way to celebrate my 50th
“first”! Tyler is my special one! We’ve been through a lot together. When I was
50 years old, Tyler entered my life and became my light.
Tyler and I have played basketball
many times, but it has always been the game of “Donkey”. You know…making a shot
and then the other person has to make it or else they get a letter. Whoever
gets d-o-n-k-e-y first loses. Well, Tyler played basketball on his 5th
grade team this year so now he is getting more serious about. He suggested
playing one-on-one. Even with all my cracked fingers from the winter’s cold and
dryness, I said YES! And, guess what! He is better than I am! And “competitive
me” has no problem with this. I’m sure we will be doing more of one-on-one as
long as grandma can hold out.
We finished the night with my
giving him a haircut, eating ice cream while watching a movie, and having him
as my first overnight guest in my new master suite. As the song goes…oh what a
night!
