Tracking

Yesterday was Cooper's first track meet of the year.

It just so happened to be in the 30's and raining... sometimes sideways!!

I was thankful Cooper listened to his dad and I and wore tights and a long-sleeved top.

So many of the kids were absolutely freezing.

So were the parents.

I was PREPARED.

Coat

Poncho

Umbrella

Seat

Stadium Blanket

Heater

Propane Tanks

I left the heater in the car because it was raining so hard that it wouldn't have stayed on.

I felt it would be okay, though.

Apparently the umbrella leaks.

Within the first hour, I was drenched.

Head to toe.

Through all layers of clothes.

The track meet was only six hours longer after I was soaked.

But I was there.

This kid knew I was there.

He had food and water.

He was good.

That's what mattered.
