Later Friday morning, it was the kids races. Alyssa was registered for the 100 m run. She had her own bib with her name on it. We weren't too sure how the run would go since a) she'd been awake since 3:30 am, and b) the last time she did this, she freaked out because a giant strawberry was chasing her! Even with the hundreds of kids and their parents at the start line, she ran on her own and completed the run by herself without asking to be picked up. That in itself is a huge accomplishment. Her eyes lit up when she received her finishers medal and wore it proudly around her neck. Do we have a runner in the family? Maybe!
Before her race they had music. She was right into it and was dancing and moving around.
Practicing with Grandma
She absolutely loved her two medals. She held onto them while in the stroller and on the car ride home. So proud of her finishing all by herself.
