For the love of the game

Football, basketball, floor hockey, ping pong.... you name it. The boys love to play sports. They are just a tiny bit competitive however. Maybe hyper competitive. Maybe turn every event in life into a competition competitive. I wold like to say that this lovely trait did not come from me- but the truth is it came from me AND Mike. Double whammie of competitiveness.

I am having to tone down my competitive drive since I found out I have mono yesterday. No fun. Just want to sleep all the time, but can't because I have 120 students and four little guys. No need to pity myself though because my boys do take good care of me when I am ill. I told them my sickness makes me want to sleep all the time and they all said I can nap in their beds whenever I feel like it. Woohoo. And as I have monitored their play this weekend I have indeed rested in many of their beds.

The big boys just finished basketball season. They loved it. The little boys also loved it cause at the games I let them eat quite a bit of candy. Hey, you deserve an incentive to watch two basketball games in a row.
