Counting down ...

Drove to Invercargill for racing today ... the last competition before we head north to Cambridge for the nationals at Easter (only seven weeks to go !!!).

Both rugrats raced extremely well. Although we tell them repeatedly that placings aren't what we care about, we just want to see them trying their best, it's still awesome for them when effort = results.

S came second in the six year girls, and K came third in the nine - ten year mixed (he's eight) ...
S is ecstatic that, by virtue of the fact that she raced today, she now qualifies to race the nationals with her big brother. She is thrilled that she will earn herself a New Zealand ranking and be allowed to have an "NZ" on her licence plate :) :) :)
