One reason Saturday is my favorite day is that I do not have to get up at 5:00 a.m. to get ready for Extended Care and School. I can sleep until 9:00 a.m.! Sometimes I have a hard time waking up and my Mom has to remind me a few more times.
Once I am awake, I like to start my Xbox and join classmates online for a quick game or two before another favorite part of the morning, breakfast! Mom has more time on Saturday to make my favorite pancakes or French toast with sides of scrambled eggs and hash brown patties.
Then it is time to get ready for basketball. Usually the games are at 11:00 a.m. I think I like basketball more than baseball or soccer because I can run around a lot more. Last Saturday, our team, Tennessee, made the playoffs but we lost to Alabama. They had a lot of big kids on their team but it’s OK, there is one more game left. Even though it is a consolation game it will be a lot of fun.
After basketball, my parents and I go out to lunch. Sometimes a quick lunch at McDonald’s or a longer lunch at the 99 restaurant, then home again for more time on my Xbox with friends. Later in the evening my dad and I will head to the movies. Last Saturday we saw “The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part.” It was funny to see Batman do the Floss dance.
Before bedtime I watch some YouTube and catch up with friends again. I try to stay up as late as I can before my head rests on my pillow and my eyes close. Saturday is the best day of my week for sure!
