Rainy day






Bo's basketball game today was awesome
It amazes me how even with such a fast paced sport
Bo can still be in another world
acting like a monter
twirling about
yet not get run over
It is very amusing to watch
I think my favorite part is when he does something good
and looks over and smiles
He loves a crowd
We just got to get him to not duck when the ball comes at him
But I guess that is a lot like life
When things come at us
sometimes we duck
instead of taking it
and running with it
We had a great day
We were stranded inside
but it was acutally wonderful
Watching the rain pour down
We played games
watched movies
drank hot cocoa
even though it was sixty degrees
It was a good day
The kids did get intouble tonight
they decided it would be fun to jump off beds and try to land in a chair across the room
Daddy game in and
well
did the daddy thing
and they were scared
very scared
the whole way home they cried
Samantha said over and over
I just knew it was wrong
this is the worst day ever
Bo said
I am a bad bad boy
I told them
the fact that they were so upset with themselves
shows us
how good they are
even though they did not understand
it was sure nice
to see your kids beat themselves up about something
worse then we thought we would
Needless to say
I think seeing your kids care when they do wrong
really is the most important part
We all mess up
everyday
But wanting to do good
is what really matters
Everyday is a battle to be perfect
It will never happen
Just striving to learn from mistakes
not blame others
not have regrets
and try better
that really is the lesson for all of us
