Incredible Granddaughters

I don’t have the complete information as yet, but suffice it to say that we have incredible granddaughters. Today was just an indicator.

Talli, a 12-year-old seventh-grader, was a three-time winner this afternoon at her (away) track meet in Dayton, Oregon.

First, she took the 800-meter event. An hour later she hit the tape first in the 1,500 meter run (that’s about a mile, folks). And then she capped the day a while later by running a winning leg of the 400-yard relay.

And, oh, by the way, her school history (I think) project took second in the STATE, after being in the top two at her local school. WAY TO GO, TALLI!

Hayley, a 10-year-old fourth-grader, tested off the charts in some kind of a writing exam of which I am as yet not too clear. But she scored REALLY well. WAY TO GO HAYLEY!

Of course all the while bouncy four-year-old Aubrey keeps everyone with a smile, as her infectious, happy personality shines a light on all around her. WAY TO GO AUBS!

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our son Gregg, who is the father of these great kids. Their mom Elaine is likely the one providing most of the track genes, as she was a college distance runner. And both of them were outstanding students in their younger days, so you can see why the kids do so well.

We are blessed. Thanks be to God.
