This was a long week. New routines, bithday party, a Time Trial for Kira AND a large pancake breakfast for both the birthday party boys, and two Cross Country teams...JR. High and High. Kira had a little bit of a heart-ache during her time trial for Cross Country. It was a very hot, humid day, she had a bad cold with swollen glands and a stuffed up nose. She bravely ran the race, and started well. After the 1600 yard mark, she boinked...which means it was tough. She remembers nothing after this point, except that she went "tingley". She finished in a heartbreaking 13th place, and collapsed at the finish line. Luckily a parent-physician was there to advise, and diagnosed it as just hyperventillating...probably not enough oxygen due to the respiratory infection and conditions. "I'll be back" and we believe she will.
Trevor had a great time at the party, with a viewing of the movie "Anaconda" which Nathan reports to be a "really bad film" yet the pre-adolescent crowd called it "tight" whatever that is.
Connor is composing his list for his upcoming party next month, and it gets longer by the day.
Great week...ups and downs but we will take it all.
