Jr. High Track has been fun - at least for me! I don't know if Caiden would classify it as fun, but I do know he enjoys the meets. Practicing isn't his favorite, and we did find out the 400 M is not for him. I think he almost quit the week they made him run it at a meet - but it was good for him! Aside from the 400, he's attempted high jump, he has run the 200 M dash, and he has found quite a niche in triple jump. He even won that event at one of the meets! His goal for the league track meet is to break 31 feet.
On Dec. 22, I woke up to Caiden not feeling well. In fact, he said he hadn't ever felt the kind of pain he was experiencing that morning. Reluctantly, I made an appointment. Long story, short - it was good he complained because he ended up having his appendix out that afternoon! It must have been at the very beginning stages and thankfully hadn't burst. So, we were in and out of the hospital by midnight that night. Maybe the worst part about the whole thing is that his wisdom teeth surgery had to be postponed since it was supposed to be the very next week. He'll go back to school minus an appendix, but still having his wisdom teeth until February 16! Pre-op Post-op
