Another Friday has arrived. I am so looking forward to the weekend, although it's a busy one...but I enjoy life with three kids and wouldn't want it any other way!
Our busy weekend is coming at the end of a busy track week. Robert had two track meets this week and we are so proud of how he is doing! He has really, really improved in throwing the discus, and is getting better at each meet. He threw 102', 8" last night. I am a proud mom! His running events are more "hit and miss". He is enjoying the hurdles, although the 110m isn't going so well. He ran the anchor leg of the 4x200m relay on Tuesday. We thought his coach was CRAZY for putting him in at anchor at such an event, but clearly coach knows best! We had never seen him run like that before. Andrew and I were discussing how he never ran like that on the base paths...apparently had he been racing from one base to another he'd have done much better. Who knew???!! It has been so much fun to watch him, and I'm also grateful it has given me a chance to meet other parents while watching the meets.
Thomas finished up his art classes this week. This kid absolutely loves art and seems to have a talent in that area. It has been such a joy to watch him have so much fun each week and was absolutely worth every single penny.
Mom learned yesterday that her first chemo session will be Wednesday. I am so grateful to be getting this started. I have told her that I want to be the one to get her from chemo on Wednesday and take her home. I am trying to be strong, but there is a part of me that is angry...angry that I have to deal with a sick parent again. I'm counting my blessings though, in that I have the flexibility to be able to do so.
Lots going on, but after today there are only 26 more school days!
