Please keep it all in perspective and enjoy the ride
For some it will end in middle school and for other high school
Most won't at after that
But for now as your sons are still in elementary school

I am a youth athlete. I am brave and strong and talented. But I’m still a kid. I am not perfect. I am a work in progress. I need you to be patient while I test the limits of my body and work through the emotions that come with success and failure. When I make a mistake, I wonder if you’ll be disappointed.. When I reach my goals, I look to see if yo are watching. I am a youth athlete. I love my sport. You call it competition. I call it playing the game. I want to win and have fun. I am a youth athlete. I am YOUR youth athlete. Winning feels great, but your praise feels infintely better. Please remember these things, an promise to do my best to make you proud. ~ unknown
