Show-Me State Games

This past weekend, my boys were in the Missouri Show-Me State Games, the largest of this type of "Olympics-style" competition in the USA. Brandon had two days of tennis and Bryan had a day of TaeKwon Do... We pulled 12-hour days and there was a lot of sweat, great experiences and people and at the end of the weekend they had medals and stories.

I am so proud of who they are becoming as young men. Seeing them in their elements and sharing it with them makes me the happiest. The thrill of victory, the agony of a close defeat, the determination to keep going, to learn more, to try again, all of this makes for learning for me, too. They were Showing-Me so much...
