A BOY IS

TRUTH with dirt on his face,

BEAUTY with a cut on his finger,

WISDOM with bubble gum in his hair,

and theHOPE of the future with a
frog in his pocket.

LITTLE GIRLS

Little girls are made of daisies and butterflies and soft kitty cat purrs

And all the precious memories of times that once were.

Little girls are made of angel's wings and giggles and a firefly's glow

And all the happy feelings, deep inside, that we all know.

Little girls are made of cinnamon and bubbles and fancy white pearls

And snowflakes and rainbows and ballerina twirls.

Little girls are made of sunshine and cupcakes and fresh morning dew,

And these are the reasons, little one, why everyone loves you.

Fresh Wrestling Tourn.

Nic had a Fresh wrestling tournament Sat. He was able to wrestle twice. Unfortunately he lost, but he didn't get pinned, he just lost in points. His coaches say he is getting better everyday! They also had a 95 weight class which is better than the 104 he is wrestling in during regular matches at school. The poor kid is down to 92 lbs dressed including shoes. I guess 2.5 hours of practice and running does that to you! His teammates jokes he could weigh in dressed holding a footlong sub and still make weight!

He is really loving wrestling! So much that he, Alex, and I were talking about looking into sending him to a 1 to 2 week wrestling camp this summer.

Glad he likes it! Always fun to see the kids find something they love to do.
