My new favorite past time is watching six year old boys learn to play basketball. Ashton cannot get the concept of offense and defense. When his team is shooting the ball, there is Ashton guarding his guy. When they are on defense, there is Ashton guarding his guy. Well, if there's one thing he does well, it's guarding his guy. Bless his heart.
Each week we do see progress with the boys. Instead of tucking the ball like a football under their arm and driving through all the players to get to the net, they are actually dribbling. It's a very, very high dribble, but it's a dribble. They are actually learning to pass the ball too, it rarely makes it to the intended boy, but at least they're starting to share the ball.
Heaven help me, there are still five more weeks to go!
