OK, so Jax has been playing football for Blue Ridge Youth Association. (We only have 1 practice and 1 game left!!! Praise the Lord!!) Last night as I sat on a cold concrete step, beside a very grumpy, pouty hubby, watching all the happenings I had several thoughts.
1. Some parents take these sports WAY to seriously!!
2. Sometimes it would be good to have a cheer leading coach that actually knows football and when an appropriate time to cheer "TD, we want a touch down!" would be. I can tell you it is not when we are defense!
3. Also about cheerleaders at this age, they just yell! You cannot tell what in the world they are saying! It is so cute! My favorite is the tiny sweet girl who raises her little leg and yells, "Go Tigers!" and jumps up and down like she just did the most impressive jump anyone has ever accomplished!! I just want to eat her up she is so cute!
4. Wow my parents had to go through this??? (football, cheer leading-that started when I was 2!!, soft ball, basketball and baseball!!)
5. Some people-ok in this case a woman-should not be allowed out of the house-let alone a child's sporting event-wearing what they are wearing! This lady had a chest that scared everyone!! She is in shape but holy yuck!!!
6. Wow! My parents had to go through this??
7. Will we ever really win a game?? (That is probably a NO because we have one more game!)
8. Even though I didn't bring Gatorade, my drinks are still good-little snobs! Be grateful! (smile smile-take my drinks! smile!)
9. This is really great that the kids have so much fun and that is REALLY what it is all about!!
After we got grumpy, cold and melancholy home, we had a great evening. It was just a cold night and Jax had a test today and it is HALLO WEENIE!!!

Hilarious, and so cute! Your thoughts are just darling! When you were TWO and cheerleading, dressed in a total cheerleading outfit, you were the cutest little cheerleader EVER! You were so small, and just 2 years old, so your movements were so adorable - but you followed along and did the little hand motions, leg motions, and said the words. There were times I would catch you looking at your sister (who was also adorable) and "following" her, so you were a little bit behind, but not much - and that actually made it cuter!! Hey, you were only 2! I love the pics. of you in your little cheerleading outfit! I cherish those times! You are still a cheerleader - encouraging Jackson, John, Kyndra, and ME! Thank you for being YOU always! Love, Mamma
