i should know better...

than to play around with my camera settings while little man is on the court.  because he will steal the ball, run baseline to baseline and lay it in to perfection.  seriously, look at that form!  right elbow up with an imaginary line pulling the right knee up and softly letting the ball spring off the fingertips... can you tell i am the wife of a (long-time) coach?  they record college bball games so they can rewind and dissect proper form.  note to self: play with the shutter speed when little man is on the bench! 

he shoots and .... doink

 

little man is a great basketball player, i have lots of shots of the ball going in.  but i do love the look on his daddy's face when he stops just past half court to take this open shot.  especially since there was a clear path to the basket.  earlier in the game he made this same shot ~ i was with my cheerleaders and missed it. 

a house divided

the game is at 9:00... the children want to nap between 6:30 and 9:00 so they can watch the game with us. (i love that they enjoy sports).  little man and i will cheer for duke ~ m1 and john david will yell for carolina. twice a year we have a house divided.  m2 has on little man's old sweatshirt but in due time i will convert her.
