Tonight, for our neighborhood small group, Allie wanted to pay tribute to her roots.When we put this jersey on, it was like she took her cute daughter game to a whole new level.
When it was time to go to sleep, she cried her eyes out when dad told her the jersey had to come off.
Pro Basketball star Lebron James is from Akron. So is Allie.
James has lots of friends and is good at what he does. So is Allie.
Lebron likes pizza and ice cream and cookies. Um, ditto for AU.
Lebron is creative when the spotlight is on him, and rises to the occasion. Let's be honest - so does Allie.
Allie has already watched several games of the playoff-bound Cavs and Lebron in recent months.
This afternoon, sporting the jersey, Dad tried shamelessly to teach her to say, "Lebron." The first several times, all Allie could spit out was "Bron" or "Bron Bron." This kid already knows his nickname, and what LBJ's homies from Akron call him.
The other day, Allie and I watched Lebron lead the Cavs to another fourth quarter victory.
I could tell she was really becoming a Lebron James fan when she ran up to the television and shouted, "Go Bucks!"
That's my girl.
