First quarter is over. FINALLY. the weeks have been long, and Ian is back at work, driving a truck again. The summer never really calmed down, Audrey had tennis camp at MSU, then fourth of July, all the while summer band and open nets for tennis.
Audrey started out playing first doubles, then after some injuries and removals, she moved to second singles. I made almost every match this season. I think I only missed two. Considering she has only played varsity doubles, I think she did well this year, holding her own against some of the toughest girls in the area, taking them almost point for point, playing for two hours at times.
Fridays have been football games, and weekends have been hockey.
Lucas had to make the first sports decision this fall. He had to choose football or hockey. I don't think it was much of a choice for him. I worry about him, he has no one at school to talk to about his sport. Sometimes I think he likes it that way, other times, I think it makes him lonely. He misses all the birthday parties, gives up sports with local friends. Maybe this is good, as right now he wants to be an NHL goalie. It may make the traveling and decisions easier later on.
