Davin making his way down court.
...literally, ever single person on the court (both players and their partners) were completely silent as they waited so patiently for Davin to decide who he would like to pass the basketball to:-)
Davin joined a Special Olympics basketball team in our town 2 weeks ago. It has been so fun to go and watch them practice. The kids have varied levels of basketball abilities, but they are all so encouraging and patient with one another. I love to watch them.
Davin seemed nervous when we first walked in last week. I had already explained to him that he would have a partner who would help him around the court. He quickly made the decision that person was NOT to be me. That is okay. I can take it:-)
Yesterday he was much more comfortable and was getting the hang of a few things. (The boy has sat through quite a few basketball games in his life!) Our goal for yesterday was to try to concentrate on trying a little bit harder to help to pass the ball or put it into the basket.
How did we do on our goal? Well...it is good to have goals;-)
The post scrimmage huddle.

I absolutely love all the opportunities you have provided Davin over the years. He is one blessed boy. I hope he knows that!
