I love...

I love when I walk out,
  I see the court and all the fans.
I love to hear my name,
  while the fans scream and shout.
I love the sound of the shoes on the floor,
  and the ball bouncing to its beat.
I love when I hear my coach yell (nicely),
  and all the compliments he gives.
I love the sweat I see on my team,
  and the determined look on their faces.
I love the feel of the ball,
  as I shoot it going for a swoosh.
I love the high fives I get,
  as a make my free throw.
I love the encouragement my team gives,
  as I work to be better.
I love the feel of a victory,
  the joy it brings to everyone!
...Well at least everyone on the Bluejay's side!
            Dedicated to Kailey for being such a baller:)
               And to everyone else on the team!! I couldn't live without you guys!!
                   I love you all!!<3

I Remember..

I remember all the toys sitting in the yard,
  all of them just for me and my brother.
I remember sprinting so fast, the wind whipping your hair,
  than jumping into the water, it splashes everywhere.
I remember the worn out blanket,
  that protected you from all the monsters.
I remember all the forts made,
  so weak you couldn't breathe or it fell.
I remember the innocent obliviousness,
  there was nothing in the world besides fun.
I remember the nights spent outside,
  the shining stars watching you sleep.
I remember all the dolls,
  I was the best mother they ever had.
I remember the prayers with my mommy,
  praying for my aunties, uncles, cousins, and friends.
I remember the laughter that filled every day,
  bringing sunshine on a cloudy day.
