Field Day for Lewis last Friday

Emotions were so high on Friday, mine included…tears, smiles, hugs, cursing under my breath. I loved helping in the classroom beforehand by passing out their Denmark shirts, getting pictures to share with Lewis’s teacher, and spending some time with another momma and friend…whom also made 22 Denmark shirts for our class country representing Men’s World Cup Qatar. 

I was incredibly triggered with how much I really HATE field day from my childhood days. I lost count of how many times I quietly cried, wiping tears off my cheek. The competition, need for speed, not following the rules…not that I blame them with hundreds of other kids around AND the noise of loud music near the gym…it was very overwhelming. Lewis was short fused as well. This was a HARD afternoon. Oh how I hate field day.
