Jakob made the 7th grade basketball team at Lupton for next school year. As such, he has 10 days to workout with the coach and the team. He LOVES it. First day, workout from 8-10, home for a shower, out to shoot basketball on the drive. Day two, workout from 8-10, home for a shower, out to shoot basketball on the drive. Day three, workout from 8-10, home for a shower, out to shoot basketball on the drive. One week down, and I just know he is going to get tierd of shooting basketball after practice.
Week two, day one, workout from 8-10, home for a shower, out to shoot baksetball on the drive!!!!! Yep, he is obsessed. Read a t-shirt today that said, "Obsession is just the word lazy people use for dedication." That was Jakob, dedicated!!!
Week two, day two, Jakob wakes up, he can not run without hurting. Call your Dad I say. Go to the doctor he says. Go to Children's Hospital to see a urologist says the doctor. Come home for 48 hours of bed rest, and two weeks of no activity says the urologist!!!!! WHAT?!?!?!?!
48 hours, and just as many video game hours later, "Can I go to practice" Jakob says. What did I tell you - dedicated!! He did go, but just to watch, and try to learn the plays. Two weeks down, and he was back at practice, going just as strong as he did before. Love that guy!!!
