Varsity Championships

Last night was the first practice for the varsity team championship game.  All of the JV players were invited to suit up to practice with the varsity team and if they did that, they could suit up for the varsity championship game this weekend.

We thought most the JV team would do it.   We talked it up big for Timothy -- telling him what a great experience it would be.

After he didn't get put in the game on Sunday, he was relieved and eager to continue practicing and going on with the varsity team.

However, there was only two or three JV players who came out to practice last night.  None of Timothy's regular coaches were there either.  I thought he was going to be so upset that he had come when most of his teammates didn't.

I was totally blown away after practice when he was all smiles (just like all his other practices). He never said a word about being upset because all his teammates weren't there.  He never said anything about not wanting to continue on with practice this evening or go to the game on Sunday.

I told him how proud I was of him, and reminded him that he is showing everyone that he is a part of the team!   He is amazing me even more every day!
