We start the day's kid summary with Shelby's third tally in two days. I'll probably have to stop counting at some point, but I can count to four pretty good, which is what she has for the year so far.
Last week Darby lost her nearly brand new shoes (that her mom paid $35 for) at school. Seems hard to do, but she changed into her cleats for softball practice and didn't put her sneakers in her equipment bag like she should have. Today, one shoe turned up in the lost and found. She's trying to convince me that finding one shoe is a good thing. I'm trying to convince her that in this case one shoe is as good as no shoes. Unless she would like me to send her to school in one shoe. We've been using non-equivalent substitutes otherwise (shoes she just grew out of, or non-sneakers).
Darby got to play first base again at softball tonight, where she redeemed an early mis-cue with a put out. She also got to play catcher, which she did pretty well at. No near-chest-puncturing incidents anyway. She only had one at-bat, which resulted in a ground out to first. And I'm just going to have to stop mentioning our losing streak, as it has become a near foregone conclusion.
I haven't mentioned it yet on the blog, as sales are doing well otherwise, but the girls are selling Blue and Gold sausage, chicken, and bacon for school through tomorrow if you live nearby and want to help the girls with their fundraiser. I have to turn orders in Thursday morning. Sorry for the short notice, but don't really expect it to generate any new sales anyway.
