At the risk of being a cliche, boy have we been busy today!

Busy Girl had to be at the soccer field at 7am to sign up for referee games for next week. Busy Boy had soccer pictures at 7:30 and a game at 8:30. Busy Girl suddenly (Thursday night) found herself in the Forensics Tournament finals at school and had to be there at 8:30. She also had a soccer game at 11:15 and refereed a game at 12:45. Busy Dad was supposed to be at a rugby tournament in the afternoon (he coaches high school rugby) and I was supposed to be out at a camp on a Church building project the entire day. And, to top it of, it's my mom's birthday.

Busy Girl did pretty well at forensics, but didn't place this time. It was kind of awkward for us since she was also supposed to referee a soccer game at the same time. Now, this is a paying job she has and we have emphasized that the job comes first, yaddda, yadda, yadda. Then, the forensics thing comes along and we've always told her that school is the most important thing. If you have to miss a game you've signed up for, then you are supposed to call by Wednesday night or you are penalized the following week by not being able to work. At any rate, her coach saved the day and did her game for her.
