Our Sports Champions

As I arrive to watch my younger son’s final football game of the season, I am presented with a sports treat.

I have finally gotten lucky enough to be able to catch my older son’s warm-ups for Track & Field.

His sports events are Shot Put and Discus and this will be his second season.

I feel a bit guilty that it has taken this long, but simply concentrate on the fact that it has finally happened.

It is fun to watch, and learn, what exactly he does during his warm-ups. Much to his chagrin, I snap some pictures.

After this treat, I get seated to watch my younger son play his final game of the season.

He is a starter and this is the championship game.

I find myself so nervous during this game. I think that my husband feels much the same.

We start off strong but then the other team comes to life and the score is 14 for us and 13 for them.

My nerves are definitely kicking. I find this to be a very exciting game.

Our boys played really well and are rewarded for it as they win the CHAMPIONSHIP with a score of 42 to 19.

I cannot help but reflect on what a sports family we have become. I am proud of this.

In addition to Track & Field for my older son and Football for my younger son, our family also mixes in Racquetball, Gymnastics, and Tennis.

Lest we forget, there are one, or two, gym rats among us.

This is a wonderful thing.  It has been a wonderful day
