and when she is old, she will not depart from it. (Proverbs 22:6 or something like that)
Or in our house, it’s more like bring up the little girl as a University of South Carolina Gamecock fan and, hopefully, she’s a fan for life. Not that it will be an easy life. Haha. But she comes from a long line of Gamecocks who have endured the good and lean years in athletics and remained loyal forever to thee, Carolina.
Teesa, will I meet Cocky
I love a basketball gym, but where is Cocky
Nay Nay, did someone say something about my bow
Teesa, I love the Gamecocks –
even if I didn’t meet Cocky this time
Alas, Cocky was spotted below where we sat several times and of course often in the spotlight in the middle of the arena performing his Mascot duties, but by the time Teesa maneuvered her way with Ella to the floor, Cocky had walked out through a different exit. Bummer. Next time.
The Gamecock women’s basketball team continues to be ranked #1 in the nation in the Associated Press poll of the top 25 NCAA programs. We have a large target on our backs now, but team veterans as well as newcomers are stepping up. And yesterday in their victory over Elon they had another newcomer waving her white towel during sand storm at Colonial Life Arena.
Go Gamecocks!

Hopefully, and it already looks so, you’ll have better luck than my father had in turning me into a sports fan. Lol!
She wins every adorable contest!!

Thank you mucho, Ann – of course we think so but struggle to contain our enthusiasm for our granddaughter without success!
We are hoping her father’s athletic gene makes it way to her sturdy little self in some form that makes her have fun!
Hope you are feeling stronger and better, my friend of cyberspace legends.
