this friday and saturday mark the end of a five year ride
for this little girl - oh, i mean "young lady"
who knew back when she was just this little muffin of a child
that she would become a full time university student/athlete
giving up much of her free time and weekends
devoted to the sport of her choice
basketball
yes, both in-season and off-season this girl has dedicated her life
to the daily grind of working out and practicing and playing
the game of basketball
this weekend she will play her last "home" games in the gymnasium
she calls her "second" home
it is a bittersweet ending to a l....o....n....g five years
ones i'm sure she will remember forever
they hold a lot of special times
spent with special friends and teammates and coaches
yes, saturday night will be a very sad night for this girl
but the memories of the past five years will remain priceless
alyssa
we have enjoyed watching the journey you have taken
may you remember these times and never take for granted all that they were
may your future hold many more special experiences to last you a lifetime
oh, and we almost forgot
PLAYOFFS - OH YEAH BABY!!
xoxo
mom and dad
