Wow, I am a nut!! (more t-ball!!)

Current mood: amused
Okay! Well, despite the fact that my last kid didnt leave until 5:30, we happened to make it to the field in time to get Trip's uniform, get him dressed, and ready to warm up just in time! Fortunately, being that it was the first games and that it was 3 and 4 year old t-ball, the games were behind by about 15 minutes. :) And I say I'm a nut, because I didn't realize at the time I was posting my blog just how much information I was giving out. YIKES!! I'm gonna go edit that right away. I gave the time, location, field, and my son's name and team name all in one paragraph!! And posted it in a public blog!! So yeah, I'm a nut. I apparently haven;t been thinking very clearly. haha.
Well, the game was great!! Trip played at about a short-stop position and ran across the whole field every time the ball was hit. It was great. He also found it neccessary to throw his glove off in order to make it to the ball faster. I found it quite amusing. I'm very proud of him for having excellent sportsmanship and not playing in the dirt, even once! : ) Trip got to hit the ball twice and both times he hit it perfectly the first swing. The first hit, a little boy tagged him out on first. But the second time he made it to first and after two more hits made it all the way home!! I was SO proud!! He's a fast little booger, too! :) We don't know who won or lost...I don't think they even keep up with that since they're so young. His uniform is pretty cool, especially the hat. I'll be sure to post a picture soon.
Anyway, so there it is! Oh! And Trip saw his "girlfriend", Katie, from a distance at the field. All he could talk about on the way home is how he saw Katie and she's sooo pretty. It's adorable! She's 5, so he's found him an older--and much taller--girl. She was on his soccer team and he picked her flowers during his quarter to rest during soccer season. (awww!!!)

Reviving the Writer

... Deciding to revive a once-lost memory is intimidating. The will to bare your thoughts, sometimes unedited, for public viewing, conjures images of hiding behind my mother's dress at church -just to get a good peek at things before edging into view.  If only writing gave us at least that safety net.  A conversation with a friend inspired this post, a decade after shutting down and retreating to small blurbs on social media.  I asked why she hasn't 'written that book.' You know, when judging others, you're just asking to be judged yourself--and our toughest judge typically is our own inner voice. Henceforth, I have determined that on this day, in order to practice what I speak, in absolute protest against my tendency to imposter syndrome, I'll be writing again.  It isn't that I stopped communicating but I stopped sharing my thoughts so openly.  I'll update the happenings of the past decade and plan a fresh look to this space.  Everchanging, Kristen

Trip called 9-1-1.....

Current mood: shocked Category: Life My son called 9-1-1 today....Yep, he did! I was in my room, on the phone with my mom and Trip runs in with the other line and says "here Momma....." The other line:: "Hello, this is 9-1-1 what is your emergency?" me:: "excuse me?" Trip:: "Genna did it." me:: "What? No way. I'm so sorry. No, there is no emergency....etc....." Turns out, Trip did call.....because Genna-Clair supposedly told him to....I doubt she even knows what 9-1-1 is. Trip does because we studied it in our preschool curriculum. But he also knows when it should be used. I'm pretty sure he didn't think it was real...or that it would go through. Well, the police officer came and asked "who the culprit was"-his words- Trips eyes got watery and he was thoroughly embarrased. We talked about who 9-1-1 is for, how and when it should be used, and why it was not okay for Trip to call today. I think he got it. ~sigh~ T...
