Busy day! 9am track meet for S12. He did NOT qualify for state in the 800 again! UGH! They had him run six events today, as everyone was calling in sick! So, he did the 100, 4x200, and 400 BEFORE the 800! He just didn't have it in him. Last chance is on Tuesday! Cross your fingers!
THEN had to take S12 to his State Cup tournament soccer game. I have NEVER seen a kids club game so physical. These boys were straight up from the hood, used to playing street ball. Not sure HOW they got players passes, etc... They must have been bought. S12 is 5'2 and is celebrating because he finally hit 80 lbs! He is on the tall side, and both people he was marking were at least 5'8 and 135+ lbs! I thought he was going to break in half. But, he wouldn't get out of their shorts! We lost 3-5, and ended up with 3 yellow cards and a red. One of the yellow's was S12, and it was in the box. Yes, they had a free kick that was one of their 5!
S9 is actually in a soccer tournament this weekend (same facility as S12). They played three games, and won them all. He's the keeper, but played the field some. S9 LOVED the first game. He played his old team, and was smiling ear to ear when they beat them.
D17 is at her second prom! She looked stunning! We had pics this afternoon. LONG night of keeping track of teenage heathens! UGH

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
