Frosted Flakes: Simultaneously Terrified and Proud

Being a parent is hard

Earlier this summer, I filled all of you in on the injuries to two ranchhands (#2 and #3) and how they subsequently missed their respective baseball seasons.

Fast forward to late August. Ranchhand 2 tried cross country for the first time. He had a difficult week. At a practice early in the week (an 8 mile run), he ended up with heat exhaustion and spent most of one evening throwing up and trying to replenish fluids. A couple days later, he came down with a nasty head cold that included a fever. That was the day before his first cross country meet.

If we followed the rules, he should not have gone to school and should not have run in the meet. But, he was too excited and wouldn’t let me hold him out of school because of the fever.
