Cross Country Update- part 2!

Well, last week brought with it Brady's first Cross Country practice meet. It was held at my old stomping grounds- Darlington. Of course, I was at work. We only found out about this meet less than a week before hand. I spent the entire time worrying about him. Not that I'm bitter or anything...

Where was I? Oh yes, so given Brady's challenges with running up to this point, we felt that it was imperative that one of us make it to this meet. Scot got off work and went out there to cheer him on.

I happened to call just as Brady was running. I loved that I couldn't even hear Scot over the phone because the coach was yelling "Go Brady" so loud. I also love that Scot hung up on me so he could cheer his son on. But, Scot, if you're reading this... that's the only time you can hang up on me... :) Scot also reports that the other children from other teams were cheering everyone on. This really surprised me! How great is it that the children encourage each other even from different teams. I love it!

The above picture shows Brady running in his official uniform. Brady is fascinated by his uniform. You have to realize that Brady has never been a part of any team (by his own choice). So, this is a new thing for him. He has asked me no less than 5 times "did you wash it?" and "do you know where it is?". He looks sharp and he was very proud.Overall, he did very well and seemed very proud. Run on Brady!
