. . .bet you never thought you'd hear me say it, but yes, thank God it's Monday! This last week with Schuyler out of commission nearly did me in. We learned a very importand thing, Schuyler's physical activity is key to ALL our mental well being. So with that said, I sent my boy off to the fields of doom again today to crash into other boys to see if they can break each other.
A couple Moms told me this last week that they didn't know if the *could* send their son back out to play football after getting crunched like that . . .I held my tongue thinking it might have been rude to point out that *they* did not have to live with the grouch-o-monster that is my son when he is denied his mandatory 4-5 hours of sport daily.
I think Schuyler would have done well as a knight, you know the round table variety. Nothing to do all day but be chivalrous and do physical stuff out doors!
Anyway so you don't think me a totally neglectful Mama I will tell you, I did purchase for Schuyler the lastest and greatest in forearm padding - HEXPads - I tried to get him to let me wrap him in bubble wrap, I really did, he wasn't going for it, so this was our compromise!!

Riley on the other hand was all for the bubble wrap!
