wow husband!!!

okay, my husband is talented. he just is. everything he tries to do, he does well. in fact, he exceeds in everything he tries to do.

he is a great speaker. he has a great personality. he is a great husband. he is an amazing provider. he is a fantastic basketball player. he is a talented golfer. he is a great friend. he tells the best stories. he is a great man.

last night, i was reminded anew of this fabulously talented man. he plays basketball for our church league. yes, it's just church league, but michael played basketball long before this. he was a professional basketball player in south africa playing on several different teams before he was brought here to play on a basketball scholarship. i mean he actually played against magic johnson in south africa and stole the ball from him twice. i promise, michael is really good.

well, i've known he's really good. i've just never seen him play it. he is a conservative player when he plays with the church. afterall, the team mostly consists of just men from our church who are out to have a little fun and do a little sport together. michael usually passes the ball off and takes less shots than just about anyone else.

last night, he kept the ball a lot more. he brought the ball down the court. he drove the basket. he made the shots. he made the passes that led to other shots. he was amazing.

there was a younger guy on the other team who is also clearly talented, and knows it. he was trying to guard michael and wasnt doing a very good job. michael scored on the guy several times.

it was just a really great night in which i was reminded of my husband's amazing talent. it's just cool to be close to someone like that.

thanks for choosing me babe! i love ya and am so proud of you!
