Ben was supposed to have Sports day yesterday, but heavy rain was forecasted so the school postponed it until today. As a result, it meant that both kids had their sports day on the same day (should have planned it that way in the first place anyway!). Nick had taken the day off yesterday so he could watch Ben, but feeling guilty that he would now miss both Sports day performances, he decided to treat Jas and Ben to a new sports kit. Well, to say they were pleased would be a rather big understatement - Jasmine slept in her sweatband and t-shirt ("so I don't have to remember to put it on in the morning", she told me!) and couldn't sleep because she was so excited. In fact, she got up late in the night and decided that it made sense to also put her shorts on too!
Getting phsyched up!
Waiting for her first race
On your marks.....
GO!
refuelling :-)
with her best friends Eleanor (left) and Annabella (right)
What a star!!!! I was sooooo proud. She won the first race by a mile and crossed the finish line to chants of 'Jasmine, Jasmine!', and little Eleanor jumped up and gave her a hug - so sweet!
The effort took it right out of her though. She fell fast asleep way before dinner!
