HomeLife,  Mosely Ella Claiborne

At First Glance

What you are looking at here is no ordinary ball.

It’s a rubber band ball.

But that’s not all.

It is also the culmination of a dream.

The hope of many months and much pondering and a quite intense pursuit.

For Mosely, anyway.

That kid thinks she created the concept of a ball made entirely of rubber bands.

And she has been attempting to collect enough random loose rubber bands for a very long time now.

But she was having a rather difficult time accumulating enough to make a difference.

But no longer.

Placed in front of her one day by Daddy, Mosely was given the holy grail in rubber band ball making.

A whole bag of colorful loops of rubber.

And what she is holding in her hands, to her, is like a miracle.

A dream fulfilled,

to this six year old,

in the shape of a sphere and made of rubber.

And it bounces.
