(this is what Caed would do after he scored each time. Run back down the court with his hands up in the air.....like he had just made the WINNING SHOT!)Today was Caed's first basketball game. His team is called the Wildcats and they did GREAT! (still working on the dribbling part.....you know, it's much easier to get down the court with the ball if you just RUN!) They actually had a double header, and I could definitely tell a difference in game #2 compared to the 1st one. I know they will continue to get better and better.
I had a woman approach me and ask a few questions about Caed's condition (name of it, etc....). We talked briefly, but she ended with "how amazing it was to see him out on the court running around like everyone else!" I agreed, of course..............but that simple comment stuck with me the remainder of the day. Several times throughout the day, I just went and put my arms around him and gave him a BIG squeeze. Not because of his game necessarily or how well he played. But, because God used another parent in the stands to remind ME....his Mommy.....that #28 really IS evidence of God's power....and of his love and mercy. It will be 2 yrs. March 1st. I can't even believe it. Seems like a lifetime ago, and yet at the same time, it all happened just yesterday. Most days, I forget. We live life and look to the future. But, sometimes it's necessary to look to the past as well. To reflect on God's goodness....His faithfulness! And then trust that God has not changed....He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. And will continue working out His plan until the day of completion!
Caed and best friend Reid during the huddle. haha (they were so cute playing together!)
either a 3 pointer.....or a pass to the player under the goal!
each player has a different colored wrist band. They are supposed to find their same color on the opposing team and stick with 'em! At one point, all 8 other players were down at one end of the court. Caed and "his man" were down on the opposite end stuck together like glue! Talk about FULL COURT PRESS!

What a milestone to play a basketball game...and then the added encouragement from others...God knows our needs better than we do and He sends the people we need in the timing we need. Great to enjoy a little of your family time as well...Great is the God we adore...

GO WILDCATS! What great pictures taken by one of Caed's biggest fans! Good going, Lori....sure do enjoy getting to see some of the activities of the kids. Caed just looks wonderful out on that court...I, too, can't believe it! Bet he's gonna be a great little ball player like his Daddy was...glad Todd is getting to spend the time as "Daddy Coach." Keep up the good work, Caed! Love you all.....Aunt MeMe
