Last week, Colleen got to go to the special olympics with her school. It’s a very large event with many school districts attending.
Of course, in true NY weather fashion, it has been in the 50’s and 60’s, but on Thursday, it was 90°. I knew I was going to have to send her with a lot of water.
She had three events; ball throw, assisted walk, and jumping! She placed 6th, 4th and 1st, respectively! So proud of her accomplishments. I came later in the morning from work, and knew from seeing her that it was way too hot out for her. Despite that, she did well, and drank a lot of water. I was thoroughly convinced that she was going to fall asleep on the bus ride back, but surprisingly, she did’t! But, she was so worn out and tired that she didn’t really care that Anna and Elsa were there.
I can’t wait til she gets to go next year! It was evident that they needed more pop-up tents, so we’ll have bring ours next year.
I’m having a hard time believing that it’s already the end of May. Slow down, time! Colleen has a field trip to the zoo, then we’re just about at the end of the school year.
Please, please, so down, time!
