Migraines!!!

Today is team practice night. I really don't like it when she misses these days. I feel like she misses some important instruction she can't make up any other time. Let me tell you, she is only 7 years old. She competes level 5 of USGA. She has placed in the top three all around of every meet she has competed. I don't know why these feelings are present. Really, what is she going to miss? So what if she doesn't move up to level 6 until next year? So what if she doesn't win every time? Is it really going to matter in the grand scheme of life? NO!!!

The reason she is staying home tonight is because she suffers from migraines. A terrible affliction to suffer at only 7 years old. She has been getting them for quite some time now. Perhaps 2-3 years. They don't come often, but when they do...watch out!! She becomes sick!! The poor kid has enough experience with them that when she has one and the babysitter is here she takes care of her self. Takes her medicine and puts herself to bed! Pretty good for a little girl!!

So we are home tonight in soft warm jammies, snuggled in a blanket on the couch. What better way to spend a cold winter night of Christmas break?

I think we will be better in the morning...Practice at 9am!!!
