Wrestling
This week you attended your first wrestling match (1/21/09). I kept my eyes closed most of the time, so as not to witness any injuries, but other than that we had a fun time. You were wary of the surroundings at first, not that I blame you. Those high school gym buzzers are loud! We watched your friend Brendan and the rest of the local high school team and you seemed to catch on quickly, shouting "Get up!" to the wrestlers. I'm still holding onto the hope you choose a safe hobby, like golf or chess, but on the terrifying chance you do wrestle, here is a picture of you at your first glimpse of the sport. You were far too interested for my taste!

Hey buddy. It was a lot of fun to hold you in my lap at your first wrestling match! I have a great picture from when I was your age, sitting on your Grandpa's lap at a wrestling match...it's my favorite picture, both because I love my daddy very much, and because it reminds me of the thousands of wrestling matches he and I have been to over the years. There were the ones where he was coaching and the ones where I was wrestling, from pee wee to high school to college. Prepare yourself, because Grandpa and I will no doubt tell you all the stories some day.
ReplyDeleteWhile I love wrestling as much as anything (other then you and your mommy), and I really do hope that you get into it some day, no matter what hobby/activity/passion you choose to make your own, I hope that we can share it the same way that Grandpa and I shared wrestling.
I love you Mighty Mouse ;-)
This is too cute! Although, you being scared of him joining wrestling does bring back some memories of your mother nearly falling off the bleachers every time you got on the balance beam.
ReplyDeleteI know, my poor mom! Who knew what torture we were putting them through?
