Robin and Christina had some friends over for a barbecue today. There was Chicken Butt, an epic one-hour water balloon fight, hot dogs and cheeseburgers, s’mores by the fire pit, and a rousing game of Toy Story on the Xbox. Everyone had a great time, including me. Already thinking of what we can do to top it next time.

It was a perfect day for Robin’s Tampa showcase. I forgot how chaotic it is, though. She had a couple drops that left her feeling upset, but Billy reminded her that it’s how you recover from it that matters. That perked her up. I appreciate that he was also in a competitive sport and is a coach because he has a perspective on losing that I don’t have, and it’s a valuable one. Every competitor loses sometimes. He gets how it feels and knows how to show up next time. I want them to connect in that way. I was glad they did. And also there was fried ravioli.
