preparing for his first pinewood derby race...
the kid: mommy, I hope I win. but if I don't that'll be okay. because it's all about having fun. and we can have fun even if we don't win. but I really hope I win.
he won his first race and started crying...
me: why are you crying? you won.
the kid: I know. I'm crying because I'm happy. and I'm sad for the kids who didn't win. all at the same time.
he came in 5th place overall and 2nd for his pack... and started crying again...
me: why are you so sad? 2nd place is awesome.
the kid: it's been a really long day and I'm just ready to go home. I'm happy but I'm more tired than happy.
