A Crazy Little Thing Called Basketball

My girls both play basketball. And my husband coaches both of them. And their Aunt coaches Loryn with Dan. And their Grandpa and Grandma come to many of their games. And then everyone likes to hash it out over Sunday dinner. Inevitably, every conversation of the extended Ross family comes back to basketball. It's a big part of their family culture. And it's wonderful and complicated and heart-wrenching and entertaining. And sometimes we all wonder why we do it. But I love watching my girls play, win or lose, through smiles and tears. And I don't know how long it will last, but for now, it's how  we spend the better part of our Saturdays and many of our weeknights as well.
