Kool Kids
"See, here's the thing..."
I have the two best kids in the world...but then again, what mom wouldn't say that? But, in my case, it really is true.

Both of my kids have excelled in music this past year. They started music lessons - Ty playing the piano, and Ry playing the guitar. Ty is now learning to play "The Entertainer" and is looking forward to playing the french horn next year in band. Ry might not be as advanced as Ty, but he definitely has no problem playing and singing while on stage. I can see him being a rock star one day.

They are also both great at their chosen sports. Ty started diving this past year after her knees forced her out of gymnastics. She placed fourth in her first dive meet on Friday. I thought that was pretty good since she really hasn't been diving very long and this was her first meet. Her coach would like her to move up from the novice division to the JO division sometime this coming year, but she will have to get several more dives first - including some on the 3M board...scary! Ry has also done so much better at baseball. He's become a great little 3rd baseman, and talked today about wanting to play fall ball. The season ends just a few days after the first practice for flag football, which he is also playing this fall. So, he will also be busy with sports.



Oh, and did I mention how smart they are? Ty will being going into 6th grade next year and will take honors math and GT. Ry isn't in GT, but should be - he has the most creative imagination ever!

My kids are so talented, and I am so proud of them! Thanks for taking the time to listen to me brag. Oh, and enjoy the pics of their many talents.
PS - Here's my weekly running update...which I almost forgot in my eagerness to brag on my kids.
Weekly Total: 30.5 miles
Monthly Total: 60.6 miles
Overall Total: 299.8 miles (OK, now had I known this morning that I was that close to 300 miles, I would have gone an extra mile!)
By the way, my new favorite CD is The Dutchess by Fergie....AWESOME!

You have every right to brag about your kids! They are awesome! Maybe Ty can teach me how to do math after she takes her honors math. I also played the french horn. Iwas in 8th grade, though. Ry looked so cute playing that guitar! Maybe they can put on a concert for a fundraiser!!!

My sleep count since Friday: I don't know...I lost count!!! :-)
