Our 17 year old son David is doing track again this year. He caught the track "bug" from his older brother Kevin who loved it and was great at it. Kevin ran the hurdles and David decided to follow in his footsteps. David's the poster child for A.D.H.D. and all those years of jumping around have finally paid off...the hurdles are just another thing to hop over, only nobody tells you to sit down and stop being annoying. His best day this season was when the coach told him he was as good as Kevin. He has crashed landed over the hurdles and scraped up his face and shoulder, left nipple and leg. That gave him endless scabs to pick off his body and why does he think we want to see each piece and what lies beneath it?

David - you are the bomb! Maybe Annelise will follow the family tradition - I think she's got enough energy!
