    Robin’s first cheer competition is on Saturday, so we made some pins. We have eight hours between her performance and awards in which to give them out, which might just be enough. We learned a few things from last year and these were much simpler to make and probably cooler, too. We may need to reevaluate what type of glue we use… we’ll see how many of these charms survive the trip to Daytona. I’ll have to remember to pack some glue in my go bag.

    It was a long day of cheer performances that started at 4:45am and only just wound down, almost 15 hours later. Robin’s team looked great (to me, at least), but they are competing against teams twice their size doing stunts they can’t even attempt due to their size. These kids are amazing, and doing amazing things. I never thought I’d say this, but I’m enjoying this. So proud of Robin.

    Had lunch with Myrna today, and then we made pins for tomorrow’s cheer competition. Can I just say it is harder to decorate clothespins than you might think! Also, we will be finding glitter in our earwax for the next ten months.
