Hailey is on the running team at school. She has ran in two races. They run about a mile and a half. The first race she was so tired that she came to me about 50 yards from the finish line crying. Her legs hurt and she thought that she was not doing well in the race. After a very dramatic meltdown for all to see she and I walked across. She finished 77 out all the girls. We went home and did not wait for the winners to be announced. A friend called and told us that Hailey had actually placed 5th and would be getting a ribbon. She felt much better. Here is her first ribbon...
Today she ran and finished strong. She was really excited to see how she could do without stopping. She finished 47 out of all the girls. There are hundreds of kids that run and we are very proud of her for not giving up. She ended up taking 5th place again out of all the first grade girls. Way to go Hailey!
