I hate fundraisers. Like, I really, really, hate them. I hate asking for money from others and I hate giving these companies 50% of what they actually collect. BUT, all that aside, I got to volunteer to mark up the shirts this year, and that was awesome. I love that the kiddos that I knew kept coming back to me instead of other volunteers.
Alexis went first and did a really great job. She took a few walking laps, but she never completely stopped.
Taylor was going to run the non-color track, but after 10 minutes of bribing, I was finally able to convince him to run the color track, like 95% of the other kids. I kind of feel bad now, for practically forcing him to inhale corn starch, but I didn't want him to look back and regret not doing this, on his last year of elementary school.
I didn't get to watch Kendall run because she was running on a different track than Taylor, but at the same time as Taylor. She did great, though, and even ran more laps than was required of her. Taylor did, too, by the way.
I love that I now have the time to volunteer at school, see the kids, and be present in their academics.
