The kids enjoyed participating in cross country again this year. Their coach, Mr. Robertson, is so good with all the kids. These first few shots are of M and T during a practice runs at Mr. Robertson's farm.
This one was taken at the last cross country meet with two of M's friends. You wouldn't know it from the picture, but all of the girls are the same age. M is just a bit on the small side for her age.

T is receiving his award from Mr. Robertson for being "King of the Frozen Vegetables". It was sort of an inside joke. After every practice they were asked if they'd like some frozen vegetables, which was code for a frozen popsicles. Mr. Robertson said that he liked his "frozen vegetables" so much that he was willing to run for them.
M received an award for "Soar like an eagle". This award was a result of a conversation M and I had after one of the practices. I asked if she liked to run and she said yes. When I asked her why she said, "Because it is the closest thing to flying on this earth. I'd really like to fly someday." She also liked to leap or soar over the hills in the back part of the coarse at practice. She was very happy and surprised to receive this award.
