There are more kids on Max's team, but I think they forgot about picture day.

Topsham track meet
This is the end of the race. The races are cross country so we can't see the whole thing. They usually run on trails through the woods and we wait at the finish line. Max beat his last week's time by almost a minute!

Raising Boys by Roberta I. Teague
I scrub the wall of fingerprints,
Pick up the mounds of clothes.
I sweep the dirt that shoes track in-
Wish I could use a hose!
Meals are served from dawn to dark,
Dirty dishes crowd the sink.
Just when they're washed and put away-
Everyone wants a drink!
The washer pulls the dirty grime
From pants worn thin and patched.
They look so very neat and clean-
Yuck, look what the pockets hatched!
Broken bones and bloody knees,
I should have been a nurse.
I take it all in shaky stride-
Just grateful it's not worse!
Screams and shouts and arguments
Test the keeping of my cool.
They left the neighbor's faucet on-
See their new front yard pool!
A soothing bath is ecstasy,
A reward at the end of my rope.
Raising boys isn't really bad-
But first I must wash the soap!
A rose can say I Love You,
Orchids can enthrall;
But a weed bouquet in a chubby fist,
Oh my, that says it all!
Max's first track meet
I took my camera to the track meet and then as Max was coming around the corner to the finish line the battery died. I was so upset! Here are the pictures I got before the battery died.
The little boys on their first bus ride.
The little boys on their first bus ride.
The school we went to for the meet.
Little boys doing warm-ups with Max and the rest of the running club.

T-ball
Max started T-ball today! He was so excited that even an earache couldn't stop him. We took him to the doctor after practice. Here is a smile box filled with videos and a few pictures for you all. He is wearing blue running pants and he has black sleeves under his yellow shirt. Click the pictures in the lower right corners to go to the next page. Enjoy!

More pictures from last weekend...
These are from my cousin's camera. I had even more pictures, but my computer deleted the whole file and I can't find it. I thought they were uploaded and had even edited the photos, so cleared the card on my camera. Ugh! My cousin has more, so when she sends them I will post.
