JO Max meet over!

Well, we got the kids over to Chula Vista for the JO max meet this weekend. Getting up was no problem for me or the kids (me-5, kids-6) and they did both well and not so well.
T Times -100 IM 1:45.79 (dropped 2+ sec.)
50 Free 43.06 (added 1+ sec.)
50 Fly 52.32 (added 3+ sec.)
50 Breast 53.42 (dropped 8+ sec.)
50 Back 50.68 (added 2+ sec.)
100 Free 1:32.63(dropped 7+ sec.)

L Times - 100 IM 1:59.89 (dropped 10+ sec.)
50 Free 46.32 (added 3+ sec.)
100 Back (DQ)
50 Breast 1:01.09 (dropped 11+ sec.)
50 back 50:43 (dropped 1+sec.)
100 free 1:41.63 (dropped 10+ sec.)

Can you see the problem? That's right, for the 1st time ever, L beat T in a time. The 50 Back. She cried. He said, cool, whatever, mom! I didn't know whether to be horrified for T because she works so hard and L seems to lope along, always thinking to himself that she is stronger and faster forever OR to be pleased for L because he HAS been paying attention in practice and is starting to show something for it.

So much fun to be a mom (yes, I am rolling my eyes at that)...
