The Kids
May 26th 2007 18:28
My eight year old son is always eager to share his Hi/Lo of the day. All of my children actually really enjoy it. So his latest is as follows.
HI-Making the relay team at school-
He said 6 kids were invited to try out and one kid was cut. Obviously the boy was devasted and was crying. I though, oh no, If they can only have 4 kids plus one for the substitute then they should have had at least 7 or 8 kids picked to try out. To have one loser is so embarassing for kids that age. And if any of you have boys of the same age you know how they enjoy taunting each other. It is so interesting.....
So my son made the relay team and I am estatic. I love sports and am very excited to watch him compete. Sports are such an excellent thing for children and even a child who is not very athletic can be encouraged to find some physcial activity they enjoy and work to do well at.
Lo-He didn't have one
C'mon he made the relay team, what could get him down now!
