I have always loved musicals and really wanted to see "Wicked." So, since I don't get to go anywhere, I read the book instead. It was SO hard to slog through it but kind of interesting as well. So I made it through that book although didn't really want to finish it but with my OCD, had to. That said, I am now reading "Son of a Witch" which is the sequel to the first book. Why? Why???? I absolutely do not like it. It's hard to read, blah blah blah.... I mean really Shawna, just let it go already!
We had a big game last night against the other civic team and lost. It was such a hard loss though because we were down by two with two outs and two runners on the bases. It's coach pitch so Davis was pitching and who came up? Carter. Carter who usually swings at everything he is thrown and swung at nothing the first four times (they get five pitches.) On the last pitch, he had to swing and my sweet little choker who got so nervous and excited, threw him a pitch that landed on the ground right in front of Carter, who diligently swung anyway. So, we ended up losing and I don't think Davis will ever let it go! He lamented all night long and finally said he was done talking about it. Mind you, he said talking, not thinking! Carter and I then had a big discussion on the word fallible and how Daddy is a person and just wanted him to do so well he got too excited and did not mean to strike him out. Oh well! It really was a great game to watch.
Tonight both boys are playing although at different parks so it's rush rush. If it is anything like last time I will end up missing John Michael's game.
On to a different story. Carter exchanged names with a boy at school last week and was going to have to sit out for some of field day today (a whole issue unto itself.) Well, he went to remind the PE teacher who then told him to go ahead and play and the other PE teacher told him he was in even more trouble and had to sit out all next week PE for disobeying their earlier orders! Instead of correcting her and not wanting to be deemed as "sassy" he just said "yes ma'am." So, I guess Mama is going to be making a trip to the school on Monday to figure out the situation. I also guess it is a good thing both teachers and I know each other really well so I don't come across as overbearing. He's just so sad about it and didn't know how to handle that whole situation. Poor guy!
Have a wonderful Mother's day out there to all my mama friends - and my own mother! We will (hopefully) be putting some time in the yard - if it doesn't rain. A big IF.
The pictures are of what my children are doing right now. This is why my life is not a reality show.
