I am about to be in for the ride of my life...and learn how to play Football...

Hi Moms! With all this talk about NFL championship games, I have definitely caught the bug of professional athleticism. And why not? Afterall, I have a preschool boy who is in love with sports...and it wasn't anyone's doing. He just so happens to ask to watch basketball these days. He asked me if we could go to a game. And you know what I said in response? Of course, Yes! So I am planning to get my ducks in a row to take him to see our city's professional basketball team...floor seats. But you want to know what is also up my sleeve? Learn how to play these sports myself.

I have been thinking for the past few days that I need to learn how to play what I am calling "The Top 5" sports my son likes: Basketball, Football, Baseball, Soccer, Golf. I know, golf-a top 5 contender? Well, it is going to be. Not interested in tennis and not really into ice hockey. Even though he did enjoy himself on the ice skating rink...hmmm.

Well, moms (and dads) wish me luck. I am going to have to do my research and learn the rules and fundamentals of these sports and then find some "tutors" (if you will)...and get out there and play. I have to...for my son. I cannot rely on someone else to teach him these things, just like I cannot rely on the church to teach him about Spirituality or school to teach him how to read. I am his parent and it is my honor to be his first teacher...even if it means learning how to play sports at 30 years old. lol.

Blessings from one determined mom to you,
Aurellia
