...And He Takes The Bronze
This is my baby, otherwise known as Charlie, otherwise known as the 3rd place, bronze medal winner of the Arlington Invitational JV. How proud am I? I can't begin to tell you, it's amazing! There were eight Dallas metroplex area high schools competing in this invitational, and my baby came in 3rd! How cool is that? His second competition ever. He won three of his four matches.
CONGRATULATIONS CHARLIE

WOW!! Congrats Charlie, and beaming, proud mom!
What grade is he? Are we looking at a future state champ once he gets some seasoning and more time on the mat?
kudos again!
dzer ~ Charlie is a freshman in high school and turns 15 on chrissie's birthday, December 24th.
Thanks so much dzer, you're such a sweet guy! And I sure hope that's what we're looking at, think scholarship...PLEASE!!
State Champ? Bronze in his 3rd match sounds like wrestling scholarship to me. (Which sounds like mom and dad get to keep their money.)
sable ~ Now THAT'S what I'm talkin about!
Man he's cute, Kathi! When will he be eighteen? Hey would you mind me marrying into the family? LOL! For real, you should be proud!
and to think how worried you were... I knew he had it in him!! Congrats Charlie!!
stacy d ~ He turns 15 Dec. 24th. Hey, he's not doing anything next Friday night, you free?
nikki ~ You wait, hon. You'll be worried too! Btw, you can be worried and proud at the same time. I'll tell him you sent your congrats, it'll mean a lot to him.

I noticed something interesting hanging on the wall over your computer behind that good looking proud boy of yours. Nice to see it's not stashed in the back of a closet. Thats the most exposure any of my work has ever had.
katy ~ THAT'S NOT TRUE. I had a complete post on here about the one you painted me for my birthday and showed a picture of it where it hangs in my bedroom. Posted it on August 27, go look. Snot!
My bad!!! My old memory is pretty bad these days. Thanks for posting the B-Day picture.
katy ~ anytime...just paint me a new one and I'll prove it to ya!
Congratulations Charlie!
That is so great that you just started wrestling and you already got a medal!
I remember my first medal after we lost a softball game, it was a metal bottle cap my big brother gave me after the game. He said I know your team lost, so pretend this is a gold medal for trying, so I did and it made me so happy that it made me cry, until my big brother smacked me on the head, so I stopped crying.
Congratultions again, Charlie, Kathi!
rockchild ~ thanks so much!
that's awesome!! congrats to charlie and I know you are one proud momma.
jan ~ it would take a mom to know how proud, yes? Thanks!
Where's my play by play? He won 3 out of 4 matches? Great. Congrats on the bronze medal kathi and charlie!
All right! A bronzer! 3rd place! Woohoo, he must be good. But just how did you get 34 comments (not including mine)? I'm jealous.
