So we have finally finished our Landsharks season - James did a wonderful job and I absolutely loved to coach the team again. The coach is leaving this year and so I will be the new head coach for next year. I am very excited but quite nervous. But enough about me - the whole reason that I wanted to share this with you was to share another "James'ism" James had to go to Taekwondo today with David and then left there and came straight to Landsharks. Unfortunately he missed his race, so we decided to let him run with the third and forth grade boys in the 800M. I asked him if he thought that he could run the full two laps and he said "Yes Mam!" Well the whistle blew and he was off! He however felt the need to explain his predicament to quite a few participants in the race. A parent came up to me and told me the story. He said, he was cheering for his son, when he heard James run up to him and said Hi!, I'm James Heninger, I am in Kindergarten and I am running in this race, I was at Taekwondo and was late so I am running in this race" The father laughed that James was talking to everyone around him - instead of focusing on running the race. The father then started to cheer his son on (I think to get him to stop listening to james' conversation and just run :)) James, being as charismatic as he is turned to the dad and said Hi! my name is James Heninger and you can cheer for me too!
Oh how I love this boy!
