Brief Lunch with Jasmine 2/09/19

It feels like it's been so long since I've been a lone to talk to you. After Tayevion's game Jasmine you needed a ride to her friend's house for a party. I asked if you were hungry and you said yeah, I offered to get you Zao Asian Cafe food but you flat out said No. LOL. I know what I was craving so I went there knowing that there was a Rumbi Grill right next to it. When we got to the area you saw Cold Stone Ice Cream and asked for some. I said NO WAY but since you decided to stay in the car I grabbed my food which was really quick, snuck next door to get your favorite Mac and Cheese with a Root Beer and since I knew they were going to take awhile, I snuck like a Ninja and ran to Cold Stone to buy Ice Cream that you and I could share. :-) Sure enough, even after ordering the ice cream and running back to Rumbi Gril, they were barely rapping up boxing your order. It felt so good to do that for you sweetheart, it's been a while since I had a chance to do so. When I opened the door and handed you the food and dessert, the smile on your face was priceless. You were so pleasantly surprised. I love you Jasmine! So much Angel! I'm so proud of your heart, your wisdom, your self-determination and drive. I don't want you to ever forget that!! It was funny on the way dropping you off to your friends. This was our brief but funny conversation that I posted on Facebook: My teen daughter's phone pinging like crazy while I'm driving: Jazzy with a hint of Sass: Look at all those notification Dad, that means I'm popular. Where are all your notifications Dad huh huh? Me: Sweetheart, I get aaalllll sorts of notification, more than you probably. Jazzy: Oh yeah Dad, from who huh? Me: Bill Collectors!! BAM!!! In yo face!! LOL 😂😂😂 Jazzy laughing now: Oh Geessh Dad!!! Me: Yeah! Who's popular now??? Huh Huh??? You have such a beautiful smile Jasmine, it's one of your best gifts. Thanks for sharing it with me today! I love You!

Tayevion's Basketball Game 2/09/19

Yesterday, Tayevion played an awesome game against his old Coach. It was funny because prior to the game I ran into the Coach and he was boasting proudly how his team had never lost a game. Poor Tayevion's team had lost every game. I asked Trey if he notice who he was playing against and said YES!! I KNOW!! I told Taye what his former Coach had said and it was interesting to witness what happen next. Taye played an incredible game against that team. NONE of ANY of the players could easily defend him, it was soooo amazing to watch his passionate heart do his thing. A week before we has watched a couple of YouTube videos on how to get around a defenders and Tayevion really took this to heart and applied it during his game. At this point the Coach had put his best players on my boy and they STILL couldn't stop him. A couple of time the defender ran up to try to stop Tayevion and Taye bounced the ball behind his back to dodge to first defender, then stopped and dribbled the ball past two more defenders and shot the ball to score a basket for 2 points. I was so amazed, so proud and so impressed!! The crowed was impressed too! I looked around and saw so many people looking down at my boy pointing and smiling with a amazement. Good Job Tayevion!! Great Job Son!! I love you!
