Trying New Things

When I tried basketball, I didn't think I would ever be good at it. I could never shoot the ball high enough to go through the net. My dad didn't give up on me, though, and he kept helping me and telling me what to do. We worked on it every night but I thought it was useless! I would never be as good as my older brother! Eventually, I got better and worked on dribbling and shooting every day! Now, when my brother is shooting free throws, people yell out: "Shoot like your sister!" That makes me smile and I know that all my hard work payed off! :)
