Space Jam
Lucy loves the boys next door. Partly because they are cute and she is four and they humor her by playing with her and partly because they do cool things like jump and do tricks on their trampoline and play basketball- in the street. The "in the street" part is very important because Lucy feels very big when I let he go out and shoot with them or when she is allowed to shoot and dribble by herself in the street. After weeks of using a soccer ball to play basketball, Lucy got the idea to ask Pops to send her a UK basketball. It must be a proper basketball and around here that means UK. She asked on a Sunday. By Monday morning she was wondering why it hadn't arrived. After a few more days she was still asking about it nonstop. Then she went to school one day and momentarily forgot about it. Then we arrived home and there it was. We didn't even go inside. We opened the box right on the front porch and all stayed outside for her to shoot and dribble in the street.
Bright green legwarmers, plaid shorts and two-handed dribbling-all made perfect with her new UK basketball!
