Field Day 2010

Things I was reminded of at Field Day 2010:

J has a little bit of a competetive streak which is probably developmentally normal.  What was very apparent was how hard he worked at the team events--he's a lot like me that way.  Put him on a team and he starts hollerin' at everyone else to go faster. 
Juicy fruits are the perfect outdoor snack in warm weather--little hydration, little tummy-filler, and apples are great because they take a long time.
There's nothing like Boys-Verses-Girls tug-of-war to get the blood pumping:  "Pull!"  "Harder!"
Field Day is the the "final lap" flag of elementary school.  My kindergartener won't have that title much longer.  I can't wait for him to be home for the summer, and I'm not ready to let him be a first-grader just yet.

Look at that cute kid! The first and especially the third picture remind me how long it has been since I saw him!

Field day was always the best day of the year! I had almost forgotten about it...thanks for the reminder. J is getting so big...when am I going to see you again? We have to coordinate a T-town visit soon!
