It was the school
sports carnival today at the language school. Kindy kids are a bit young for
it for the whole day so they start
the carnival off with a Kindy running race.
Peanut took his spot straight away he was in his shinny silver knights
cape and his buzzlight year beanie Shrimples had given him to wear that morning. They had to wait a while
but they did really well peanut waited for well over 10 minutes they did some
stretches and the EA’s reminded
the kids of what would be happening. The race started and they were off 5
boys running all having a really good time. Peanut
ended up being half way behind them but he kept running with
the biggest grin on his face, cape flapping in the wind and I couldn’t be prouder . The 4 other boys finished very close to
each other and about 7 or 8 seconds behind them was my smiley guy he got
so excited when he crossed the line and looked very proud of himself he got a sticker which scared the crap out of him as he didn't know the man coming toward him trying to touch his chest LOL. We watched the girl’s
race then he told me to go away and off he trotted to watch a few more races
with his class.
I can’t stop watching the video of the
race. I find it pretty emotional
and backpacker had a tear in his eye watching it.
I wish he had won of
corse I do but he has no competitive drive he doesn’t understand he is ment to
win and thats okay he just runs as if he is jogging on the beach on a beautiful summer morning
and he enjoys every minute, and thats what life is about isn't it.
God I love him
What a wonderful feeling! Love that he got to wear his cape for the race -- go Peanut!
