Hello there - it's me, LeBron James! Oh, wait - that's another dude who's really talented, but we're here to talk about my awesome skills. Aren't we?
It's actually me, Eyes. But I'm starting to think I could compete with Mr. James. Oh no, obviously not in basketball (though I am pretty tall), but just in comparing how good we are at our skills. Check it out...
He's good at 3-pointers, right? Well, take a gander at my version of a 3-pointer - I now sit from standing just about every time I'm asked. You say Sit? My bum hits the floor. BOOM.

Not bad from outside the arc, right? Why is this important, you might ask? Again, it helps me learn that I have a place in the family - and that place is not at the top of the pecking order. That's your job, and it helps me feel more comfortable and confident knowing that if anything happens that I'm unsure what to do, I can turn to you for direction. These aren't "tricks", these are life skills for me. I'm going to be happiest if I learn to be polite and do simple things to earn my keep. Think of it as like when your Mom or Dad or whoever told you how important it was to say Please and Thank You - exactly the same.
Now, back to the trash talk 🏀🏀 We all know LeBron has some skills when it comes to getting above the rim. But I've got that covered, too. You might remember from this post that I was learning to Sit and Stay, but maybe hadn't quite mastered all the nuances. Yeah, I can totally dunk on LeBron with Stay now. Just you watch and see!
See how good I am at that now? I think that's going to be on SportsCenter tonight!
And just for fun, how cute is this puppy? I think we should meet up and cuddle a little bit - does that sound good to you?

Okay, last thing? Don't forget how much I love adventures! Maybe my Forever Family will want to take me for super fantastic hikes? (hint, hint).

Don't forget to check out my previous posts if you haven't seen them. I make progress every day. And I'm ready for my Forever Family to come pick me up! I'll talk to you later this week with more developments (but less basketball - sorry about all that, Uncle Chris doesn't actually know much about BB but I thought it might be fun).
Love and Sweet Snuggly Hugs,
Eyes
