February and March

I apologize for not posting any recent pictures...I have lost the cord that connects to the computer, so when I find it, you can expect an explosion of photos! February brought the end of basketball season for the Willis family! All three of the kiddos had successful seasons, and Jada (who is the only one in a competitive league) and the Fever ended the season in first place!!! February also brought on the beginning of track season for both me and Randy! I am coaching 7th/8th boys and girls long jump, while Randy continues to coach long and triple jump for McMurry. March brings on the beginning of softball season!!! We LOVE softball season! The girls are on a very young U8 team (Jada is the oldest), and they are definitely the leaders of the squad! Randy is the pitcher again this year, and we are excited to get things going! So far the Blitz are 2-0!!! March also brought with it JADA'S 9TH BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! My oldest is in her final year in single digits! A party at the Skatin' Place and a birthday supper at Red Lobster (her choice) set off the celebration! Jada is growing up so fast! She still does well in school, although the introduction of some new concepts in the 3rd grade have broken her straight A record...but she still makes me proud! She still LOVES to sing and tell imaginative stories. I see an attitude coming out that needs to be tamed before the teenage years approach, but she is still easy to talk to and is very wise for her years. I love her dearly and cannot believe the years are passing so quickly! What a beautiful, smart, talented young lady I have been blessed with!
