sleepy little Racer fan

January 7, 2011 by Kristin Leave a Comment

My sweet, sleepy boy made WPSD-TV’s story on the Murray State versus Tennessee State basketball game last night. This would be his tired, dazed expression, which happens when he decides not to give into sleep.

Yes, I know, silly momma expecting him to sleep during a basketball game. But, hey, he’s done it many times before, so experience influenced my expectations. Ben usually goes to bed at his self-imposed bedtime of 7 p.m. The men’s basketball game starts at 7:30 p.m. Yeah, it doesn’t take a mathematician to figure out why he was tired. Usually he’ll just give in, but last night he cried about it for awhile, drank milk, told people around us “nigh-night,” and then randomly clapped his hands just as his eyes would start to close.

So, yes, the tired, dazed expression. But it was a welcomed relief in Section 107 Row 2 last night. And with 5:17 remaining in the game, Ben gave into sleep. And then he clapped one more time.

Thanks to Emily for pausing her TV and snapping a picture. You can watch the game story online.

About Me

Telling stories is my therapy and love sharing with friends on my porch.

The main characters in my stories are my entrepreneur husband, our fifth-grade girl who never forgets, our have-no-fear second-grade boy, and our joy-filled toddler girl. As we live out our stories, we seek God as the author of them all.
