Lily continues to play basketball on Saturday mornings at the YMCA. I think we are down to 4 weeks left. The first week was a disaster, the second week was MUCH better, the third week was almost unbearable to watch as a parent, and last week we weren't there because we were out of town. I thought for sure after the second week that she was actually going to like it and want to play, but now I'm not so sure. I even took her into the hallway at one point during the third game and told her if she didn't get out there she wasn't going to her birthday party later that day. She didn't care. She sat down on a chair next to me, was almost shaking and had big huge alligator tears coming down her face. Those big brown eyes will melt my heart even when she is 40 years old! It breaks my heart. She really doesn't like it. I don't know why...she loves to play at home. I have to constantly remind myself that she is just 3 years old and that maybe it was too early to start her, or maybe she will be a dancer and not a ball player :(...I'm keeping my fingers crossed that she is just too young! If she doesn't like it then she doesn't like it. We are going to hold off on soccer and tee ball this year. We will wait another year. She does keep asking to take dance lessons though...we will see.
