This is always a crazy time of year for me. First of all, I have finals. Those alone are butt kickers. Then the end of the school year brings class trips, PTO events, awards assembly and kindergarten graduation (don't get me started or I'll cry a river). I am also managing both Jack and Sydney's tee-ball teams, and coaching Syds. Sydney also has her tumbling recital at the end of the month. So that means that I am doing something every night of the week. And I love every stinking minute of it. I wouldn't give up a thing.
Yesterday was PTO fun day. I spent the day outside manning giant inflatables and sweating like a large farm animal. Jack loves giant inflatables. Sydney took this picture of him.
Then later that day Sydney had ball practice, so I was out there all sweaty and unathletic. Actually, to my credit, I can catch a tee ball pretty well. Then again a 4 yr old threw it so take that as you will. I went to bed last night sun-kissed and exhausted. BUT, my makeup totally held up all day. Bravo Bare Minerals! When I got home late last night, Bob told me that I looked pretty. He says that when he knows he is suppose to, but this was pretty random so I knew he meant it.
My kids are so athletic. I am so not, so they must get it from their dad. He has amazing athletic ability, and he makes everything look so effortless. I am not shocked by Jack's natural ability, because I've watched him for years. What I did not expect is for my precious little girl to knock the freaking ball out of the park! She's a powerhouse! Here's Aunt Desi showing her how to hit the ball.
And that's all she needed!
And she doesn't mess around either, she doesn't ever seem to get tired, and she loves being active. Thank God. Because I'm a lazy pud. I'm going to brag, she's the kid in gymnastics that the coach has the other kids watch to see how to do things the right way. She's very disciplined. At sports, not in life. Look at her, telling Lily to catch the ball!
So if we can survive until school is out, I think I'll be able to slow down. Until then I'm all in.
