HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE!
September already. Why is this year flying by so fast?
Remi had his 1st football game of the season last Saturday night. It is tackle, no more flags, this year. Sadly the 6th grade didn’t have enough players to field their own team so they are now combined with the 7th graders. That means playing a little less and learning new positions. The team took a little time to find their rhythm and lost 0-6. Remi had some great plays including one that caused an interception. They didn’t have a game this week due to the holiday weekend. 
You can see I have a new ride. Mr. Dollycas surprised me with a scooter. So I traded in the wheelchair for it for sporting events and other adventures. It’s my favorite color – Purple! I am still getting used to operating it and just like when I was driving a car, reverse is not my strong suit. Hopefully, I will get it all figured out soon.
Two of the grands started school on Wednesday—Thomas in Second Grade and Charlotte in Kindergarten.
The Varsity boys played Friday night against the team that kept them from playing for a championship last year. They went on to win the state championship. So it was time for some redemption. Kaden did not play, nor did he play the first game last week. He suffered a concussion a couple of weeks ago at practice and has been following the concussion protocol. He was finally cleared to practice last Monday and has some catching up to do. They also have a new head coach this year so all the boys are adjusting to new ways of doing things. The game was a nail-biter and there were some mistakes but the Cardinals took the lead and held it to win 20 – 16. This week is a huge game against another state champ. Kaden hopes to be ready to play. It is hard for him to stand on the sidelines and watch. He loves playing this game.
It was also Youth Night at the Varsity football game where kids from Kindergarten – 8th Grade were recognized.
Of course, I did my reading, blogging, and book tours all week but chasing the grandkids is so much fun.

Enjoy the scooter and the grandkids! My grands are overseas, so I don’t see them as often as I would wish. Have a good week.

The new purple scooter—what a beautiful ride you have. Enjoy it!
I hope your grandson is able to play football again soon. I’m glad he is almost finished with following the concussion protocols.
I agree, the year is going way too fast, august was over in a blink.
I’m glad to hear your grandson is alright following a head injury, and is already back on the field.
