Circle on the Court

Taylor was invited to shoot baskets with the Blazers on December 4th! Through a professional colleague of mom's, Taylor and several friends supported the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation in bringing awareness to healthy lifestyles...And at halftime during that night's game, they all got to to on the court for a few drills!

Taylor helped calm the nerves of one of her friends right before they went on the court -- this is what one of her little friends' mom heard her saying:
"he was getting very nervous and almost started crying when they wanted the parents to go away bc they were taking the kids down.  Taylor thought he was nervous about all the people watching him and she says - "it is ok,
what I like to do in these situations is pretend that all the people are muffins.  At the end of the performance (she took a little bow) I then pretend to eat them all.  Or you can pretend they are all hot dogs if you are into that".  She had all the other kids -- an me -- and me cracking up.  Then the kids all started joking about which food they want all the people to be and he was fine the rest of the time."
